Sufjan Stevens has shared another track from his upcoming collaborative album with stepfather Lowell Brams.
The tranquil, atmospheric Climb That Mountain follows previous singles The Unlimited and The Runaround from 'Aporia', with the instrumental record set to arrive on March 27 via Stevens' label Asthmatic Kitty Records. The duo said in a statement:
"The 21 songs on 'Aporia' are tightly crafted, resonating with a gem-like intensity. In the spirit of the New Age composers who sanded off the edges of their synths' sawtooth waves, Aporia approximates a rich soundtrack from an imagined sci-fi epic brimming with moody, hooky, gauzy synthesizer soundscapes.
"The album may suggest the progeny of a John Carpenter, Wendy Carlos, and Mike Oldfield marriage, but it stands apart from these touchstones and generates a meditative universe all its own."
