The charged partnership of versatile guitarist Meg Duffy (aka Hand Habits) and producer Joel Ford (Oneohtrix Point Never, Jacques Greene, North Americans) took shape during pandemic-shadowed studio sessions in Los Angeles, gradually congealing into a poetic sonic language compellingly distinct from their respective discographies. As the moniker alludes to, 'yes/and' embraces an elusive, curious forward momentum, spiraling but subdued, between divination and dissipation.
Despite the album's experimental nature, its 10 tracks feel distinctly intimate and emotive, imbued with a strange optimism, both open-ended and opaque. The song titles reflect a similar duality, alternately blunt and oblique (“Learning About Who You Are,” “In My Heaven All Faucets Are Fountains”). Their musical instincts are oddly complementary, with Duffy's tactile fingerpicking and string caresses framed by Ford's spatial textures and compositional patience, conjuring an elevated theater of rare air and veiled escape. It's a suite born of friendship and depths, as tangled as it is translucent, somehow barely there yet far beyond the sum of its parts.

I've had such a great time many times, usually at night, listening to what you share here. Thank you so much!

[@AudioPervert1]

Ahhhhhhhhhsssss lushhhhhhh .... the reverb pedal and the notes stretched into thousands and millions of sub particals...

[@dopaminecloud]

This would definitely play in some corners of the submachine.

[@dontmurderthealiens]

why and who disliked? wtf? someone's dedicated hours of work and u just choose to dislike? listen! otherwise you'll miss it!

[@SaturnArchives]

this was uploaded literally a couple of minutes ago, someone is definitely hot headed here

[@SaturnArchives]

anyway... happy listening everyone

[@mistery-ed7900]

There are very weird people who automatically give dislikes to everything.

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

@@SaturnArchives this was released a couple of months ago; they maybe heard it then… does make them longsuffering rather than the opposite though… just like my reasoning for going here is opposite from that - I heard it then, liked it, and clicked on the video. I have never disliked a video. Just carry on. :)
