Spliff Jacksun - Sanctuary (2020)





Order Cassette: crashsymbols.bandcamp.com

Spliff Jacksun is a Montreal-based producer and illustrator with a flare for hypnagogic beats, crafting hazy excursions for a variety of Canadian and American tape labels. His work is built around weird and soothing reveries, sounds that slouch along in an almost dreamlike stupor. Influences from the visual arts and film are rampant. 

Sanctuary is a longer outing than usual, divided into three sections by a pair of short interludes named for the sun and moon. The impression of a traditional binary dissolves as the album shifts from bursts of introspective morning to more vibrant and sentimental evening. It's playful but reflective, and like most Spliff Jacksun albums, always absorbing.
