Minnesotan ambient instrumental group Windsor Airlift have released their latest album, and it is a beauty.
Flight is a great example of Windsor Airlift's versatility, as well as their high caliber of production value, especially for an independent band. The album features a healthy mix of instrumentation, and really speaks to the potential for the band's future. In Flight, Windsor Airlift finds the culmination of years of tinkering and experimentation, and it all is woven together into a magnificent fabric of sound.
Most of the tracks feature solid bass lines and guitar leads as a backbone for the framework that the rest of the piece is built upon. The band then fills the rest of the song with compelling fill from a variety of instruments, including synths, drums, and piano. They definitely blend elements well, producing an ethereal yet tangible sound that just works.
Listening to Flight is an adventure, and a treat. If you are in the mood for a very pleasing, very relaxing sonic experience, then Flight is probably the album for you. In it, Windsor Airlift does their best published work yet, and deserves every morsel of appreciation that's coming their way.
