Our Take

In the mesmerizing collaboration between experimental musicians Mike Cooper and Mark Wastell, Sound Mirrors takes listeners on a sonic journey unlike any other. Cooper's mastery of the guitar combined with Wastell's unique approach to sound manipulation creates a tapestry of textures that is both compelling and unnerving.

From the eerie drones to the haunting melodies, each track on this album is a captivating exploration of the limits of traditional music. Cooper's intricate guitar work weaves seamlessly with Wastell's ambient soundscapes, creating a sense of tension and release that is both exhilarating and disconcerting.

The standout track, "Reflections in Glass," is a prime example of the duo's ability to create mood and atmosphere with their music. The shimmering guitar tones and atmospheric percussion are reminiscent of a haunting soundtrack to a surreal dream.

Overall, Sound Mirrors is a masterful collaboration that pushes the boundaries of contemporary music. Cooper and Wastell have created a sonic landscape that is both challenging and rewarding, leaving listeners with a sense of unease and wonder. This album is a must-listen for fans of experimental music and avant-garde soundscapes.
