Nat Baldwin - Weights

A gloriously melodramatic track from Nat Baldwin’s new album People Changes, released May 24th on Western Vinyl. Borne out of isolation – the Dirty Projectors bassist wrote most of the record in his New England cabin, surrounded by dense forest – Weights unfolds with a creeping sense of inertia and claustrophobia, with loose clarinet and cello adding to the feeling that there may be an unnamed wickedness at its heart.
