This album has been in heavy rotation for me since I first heard it last summer. Arriving at Night can be an interesting listen or calming background music. It is a beautiful from start to finish.

Hefty Records, a small independant label out of Chicago was the prime reason for picking this. Its catalogue (in most) caters to the more 'experimental' side of groovy things. Victor Bermon's debut is your typical post-rock offering, and then some more. With its Tortoise-meets-Eno syndrome slapped all over it, Bermon induces some great soundscapes typical of this music: lost highways, infinite spaces, mind-benders...all held together with some ethereal melodies. Listners of aformentioned artists might find have a hard time digging anything new out of this (hell, its 2008 - we've been through the post-rock excesses), yet Bermon creates lysergic sounds enough to satisfy late night loners and post-clubbing downers, equally. Its the kind of music that propels NPR's Echoes series...not really cheesy enough for the New Age tag, but neither as strong as some of the ambient works of Laswell or Eno.
For a more adventurous session, I would recommend fellow label mate and producer Odori.
