Blue Lake - Weft (2025)
"Weft" showcases Jason Dungan's evolution as Blue Lake, intertwining elements of drone, folk, and ambient music. The album introduces a richer instrumentation compared to his previous work, featuring piano, melodica, and 12-string guitar, which contribute to more intricate arrangements. Notably, tracks like "The Forest" and "Tatara" highlight Dungan's collaborative spirit, incorporating live recordings with additional musicians to create immersive soundscapes. The album's title and cover art, featuring Maria Zahle's textile piece "Torso," reflect the thematic inspiration drawn from weaving, symbolizing the intricate layering of musical textures.
