Ball of Wax 66 Songs: oddkinn – “Lily”

This track from oddkinn – a project which has at least some overlap with our newish Arizonan pals Sceneries, Placements, who have appeared on every single volume since 61 – is, as the kids say, a mood. (Are the kids even saying that any more? Probably not, since I am now aware of it.)

Piano, reverb-drenched guitar, and less identifiable swoony, droney sounds transport us into a dream. A soft, husky voice arrives to guide us through, but his words are unclear. Is he inviting us, warning us, or luring us into a trap? Before we can quite latch onto the meaning of it all, the light ekes through the blinds and wakes us up, one last droning note still ringing in our ears.
