The Visitor - Jim O'Rourke

Pastoral perfection

Painstakingly produced by Jim O'Rourke after his departure from Sonic Youth, The Visitor - a sumptuous suite of orchestral pop music - marked a brilliant return for the composer, then exiled in Tokyo.

Incorporating more than 200 recorded parts, The Visitor plays with dozens of instruments, textures and motifs; a complex, cerebral and richly layered work that remains subtle and deeply enjoyable. Music to be listened to carefully and at high volume!
