"Decaying kosmische spools from the bedroom of local seer Brume... Marble-rattling, synth stabbing works-for-industry Exhaust Trails takes us on a more melodic slant than previous MB haunts. Maybe melodic isn’t the right word, but it’s as if the NYC ambient school (K. Leimer / Marc Barreca etc) took a field trip across the pond and got dusted down in all the car-fart and truck-belch of central London - all the playful, pathfinder synthesis forever shrouded in a sorta agoraphobic atmosphere that hangs thick in the air throughout the whole 30 minutes or so. Between all that and the delay units commanding and contorting an array of bric-a-brac powered sound design in the background, "Exhaust Trails" feel like a very real development of an already singular sound. To have such quality music / art so humbly documented and disseminated is rare these days, and properly exciting." - Low Company (RIP)
