  • Tim Hecker's next LP, Virgins, will land on October 14th. Virgins is the prolific Montreal artist's first release of 2013, recorded in three chunks last year with live ensembles in Reykjavik, Seattle and Montreal. The album reportedly has a more organic sound than his past work, "an effort at doing what digital music does not do naturally—making music that is out of time, out of tune and out of phase," according to the accompanying press release. The record, also described as "theological," features more of the ambient drift that Hecker has become known for over the past decade, albeit without the same level of distortion and processing. It will be released through Kranky, Hecker's home as of late, while Paper Bag Records will handle the Canadian distribution. Tracklist 01. Prism 02. Virginal I 03. Radiance 04. Live Room 05.
