专辑简介
"Radio Amor is a brilliant soundtrack for daydreaming, and Tim Hecker's effective variations on a few central ideas once again show a gifted composer at work." - PITCHFORKMEDIA
It was January 1996 on the coast of Honduras. The musician in question was looking to catch a ride with a local vessel to the neighboring islands. There was one shrimping vessel in port that day, and its captain Jimmy was willing to take disheveled hippies on board. This album is dedicated to the idea of Jimmy the high-wire shrimper--misplaced nautical charts, trade winds, shortwave miscommunication, midnight whispers, amorxxx.
Alien8 Recordings is reissuing Radio Amor, originally released on Mille Plateaux in 2002, in order to maintain the availability of one of their label's most important artists. The recording has been out of print for two years, out of the grasp of Hecker's growing legions of admirers. And currently, Hecker is still basking in the universally glowing reception of this year's Harmony in Ultraviolet on Kranky (Score 8.7/Pitchfork's Best New Music). Radio Amor is a key release in Hecker's discography, bridging the output between 2001's Haunt Me and 2004's Mirages.
