Bracken - High Passes

Facts High Passes is an album from Hood co-founder Chris Adams under his Bracken moniker. It's his most far-reaching and ambitious work yet. High Passes is a record made for both huddled northern terraced streets and imaginary basement clubs. From the opening Portishead-ish kraut-thump of "Slow Release" to the sunny side up, LA inflected, hip-hop lollop of "Invest In Aquacar", to the faded '70s analog synth swirl of "Branch Hid Sky" and the sumptuous electronic pop of "Ghostly", High Passes is a calling card for Adams' versatility and his remarkable production and songwriting skills.
