The homie Pocketfnife returns with the second installment of Canyon Dancing and debut release for his own Wilde Calm imprint! You might know Pocketknife from his excellent Arthur Russell reworks, his Flagrant Fowl edits, or his hugely successful Tambourine Dream project with Cousin Cole, but here on Canyon Dancing 2 Pocket spreads a little rework love on some of-the-moment indie jams. Check the freak folk vibes on his Spirited remix of "I Am The One I Am" by Wooden Wand & The Vanishing Voice and "Version" by Mi Ami, the dubbed out variation of "Searching" by LA Vampires & Zola Jesus, or the deep and somber thump of his mix of "Adam" by Religious Knives. Recommended.
