Hauntingly beautiful six improvisations from Chaz Knapp, a Texas based composer and multi-instrumentalist. Released on tape via British label Industrial Coast, "Escapism" was recorded in summer 2021 and consists of various field recordings and tape manipulations scattered throughout vast lands of drone and ambient music. Soundtrack to slowly floating in the outer space or falling down the bleak ocean floor. If you're looking for an album where the artwork (amazing photo by Harrison Palmer) visually translates and complements the musical content, this is it.
