Imagine a psychedelic journey though a vast and dense enchanted jungle of mysterious moods and sounds, propelled along by hazy percussion and fuzzy guitars and softly guided by dreamy vocals. Your perfect breezy summer soundtrack, right? This is the music of Ancient River<\/a><\/strong> as performed (surprisingly) by the duo of James Barreto and Alex Cordova. Four tracks in to their new album Keeper Of The Dawn<\/a><\/strong>, the magic mushroom mindset is informed by a slightly foreboding spaghetti western desert vibe, and things then begin to take on a darker, murkier, edgier tone. This may be due to their Gainesville roots or their travels across vast American prairies to Austin, Texas and then somehow ending up in a cold dreary London in the wintertime, but whatever it is, it makes a nice counterbalance to the spaciness to produce something quite addictive and intriguing.<\/p>\n

Have a listen to the opener, “This Is The Time.”<\/p>\n
