Chubby Wolf's posthumous wonders

Post Author:
Chubby Wolf, <i>Turkey Decoy</i>

Chubby Wolf was the moniker of Dani Baquet-Long, a talented musician who died tragically at 27. She's left a legacy of ambient recordings that are still fresh to the world, so you and I can enjoy discovering her work posthumously. Obviously there's a certain extra heft to recordings released from an artist who has left us, but even without the news (which I found out after listening to this work, personally), her compositions vibrate solemnly with a distinct sense of sadness and self.

The release, entitled Turkey Decoy, will be available on vinyl via Boomkat and Digitalis on October 10, and digitally on October 12.
