Pakistani-born, Portland-based musician Ilyas Ahmed, who is known for his project Visitor with Liz Harris (Grouper), his work with the instrumental rock band Grails, and recently his collaboration with Jefre Cantu-Ledesma in 2021, releases his 2019 album. Like 'Behold Killers', this album was released by Atlanta's experimental music label <Geographic North> . It starts with 'Etched in Smoke', which has an atmosphere that arouses the anxiety of a lost child, with a melancholy piano melody, followed by 'Nasty Man', which has a beautiful guitar with a melancholy feeling of what lies ahead of anxiety, and is played by a vintage drum machine. Songs include 'Little Devil', which has a soothing beat and gentle melody, and 'A Dream of Something', which is over 10 minutes long with guitar and relaxing synth pads. vaguely A folk-contemporary-ambient masterpiece with a dark but gentle soundscape◎
