I've been listening to A Lazarus Taxon over the past couple days. Especially welcomed on this quiet, rainy morning. 

 

The first time I heard Tortoise was "djed" on the HEADZ compilation. It was not out of place, but different. I listen back to that collection now and there really wasn't all that much going on. Very static, laid-back aesthetic with almost no dynamics. The Tortoise track was almost the negative of that. This set connects back to that DJ and trip-hop culture, minimalism, 'seventies Miles Davis, Pygmy music, or krautrock on a track-by-track basis. Oftentimes, many of these disparate influences seem complimentary within a given track.
