:D
I'll wait for the outtakes and rarities comp, would imagine you've got a decent one in store!
Fully acoustic is intriguing as well. Roll on next year...

I am beyond excited for this one. I actually revisited In Conflict last month, playing it a lot, and it only made me more hungry for new Owen stuff.

owen produced this, and plays on one of the songs, "self-help": https://tomberlin.bandcamp.com/album/at-weddings-2
self-help is my favorite after one listen but it's all really good. i'm bad at musical references but it's generally acoustic, sometimes reverbed out, sometimes like grouper but not always.

I wish someone out there would tell us when the heck this is coming out!!

I heard a rumour about next January but the source was pretty sketchy
― imago, Wednesday, 29 August 2018 10:29 (five years ago) link
Maybe your source was me, but if not, lemme corroborate. :) At least it's what Owen said after the concert in Calgary. I guess the current state is pre-release PR planning and the like. To say I'm hyped is an understatement. The new material has a real strong emotional charge to it, that's for sure.

I've been absolutely stanning the emerging Westerman this year, so how come this lovely bastard of an album slipped through my net four and a half years ago!?
On A Path, oh my days, oh my days. <3

I've just been listening to this again this morning for the first time in ages and it's hit me like a ton of bricks. My god, The Riverbed :(((((
Also everything i've heard of Westerman so far I've loved, especially Confirmation.

got a good pair of headphones for really cheap, fanciest pair i've owned and a small desktop DAC/headphone amp....anyway this is such an amazing fucking *recording* just stunning sounding

like it's not square enough to get there but it should totally be one of those records that audiophiles use to test systems
When I taught recording and engineering, I used "The Riverbed" for frequency-recognition ear training practice and tests.
