city of sleeping lights (Recorded 21 February — 15 March 2014)
Back to the known? The first "regular" 13-track Rural Citizens Band album since VIII. I think this one really turned out well. Includes a continuation/cover of an XR1300 song (freedom for Planet Futa), two Akibare ambient remakes (leaves on the doorstep and full moon hidden behind clouds) and an ambient remake of a leftover Akibare song (God bless the Sailor Scouts). The final song is a 24 minute drone track, so I'm obviously not through with that genre just yet!
