Press Quotes
“A collection of exquisitely rendered pastoral electronica. Trough Of Bowland explores textures and the interplay between folk and electronica. Without using the cut-up methods of fourtet Woodcraft Folk present a more serene version of folktronica which has a more gradual and equally durable substance to it.” - Wire Magazine
“Beautiful debut album combining discreet electronics and acoustic instruments to create superbly evocative little vignettes. Totally unique. Well worth hunting down.” - Milkfactory
“This is absolutely stunning. Strange yet comforting. Definately one of the most interesting electronic albums we have heard in a long time.. Don?t miss out on these handmade gems.” - Small fish Records
“Spellbinding and wondrous. Eerie, spectral electronic folk album.” - Norman Records
