Black Brunswicker - Been Around Here Before (2024) [Hi-Res]

Black Brunswicker creates rich ground for reflection with roaming instrumentals closely rooted in nature, casting a restful spell. The Bloomington, Indiana-born/U.K.-based artist grew up in the Midwest and brings the sweeping plains of the landscape into their expansive guitar-led sound, drawing you closer to something primordial, vast, and earthy. Been Around Here Before jells into a 10-track collection of DIY folk-brushed ambient that balances noise with beauty. Reunited with an old Tascam four-track, Black Brunswicker used field recordings and DIY cassette loops—also recording to tape for the first time in four years—to build a mellowed out, sun-glazed scrapbook of their past, finding a welcomed stillness through music as they grapple with present-day anxieties.
