Long Tall Jefferson - Cloud Folk (2020)

Setting a fantasy genre as focal point for the search to renew his folk sound, Long Tall Jefferson's 3rd album Cloud Folk became dazzling and deliberately vague, an album for the now with elements of trap, cloud rap, chillwave. Glittering synths, commanding beats, envelope rides, autotune, pads and leads and sine waves – none of this mere ornament. All is music, all is Cloud Folk.
