Timber Timbre is the brainchild of Taylor Kirk, the commanding persona at the fore of its spacious, weighted sound. With Hot Dreams, Kirk and longtime collaborator Simon Trottier daub vibrant colour across the rest-less evolution of Timber Timbre's earthy, angular palette. The elements - Kirk's singular intonation, quavered in slow, low register, over stark orchestration - combine in haunting resonance with rotation of music and time. Normalized is the bedrock essence of folksy and fifties Timber Timbre, now cached in smoothed, viscous tonality: new sonic admissions, ringing sensuality and caprice, neon and haze.
On the acclaimed Creep On Creepin' On (2011) - nominated for two 2012 JUNO Awards and a spot on the Polaris Music Prize Short List - Timber Timbre transmuted the hollow grey tones of Timber Timbre (2009) into plaintive doo-wop through oblique, concrete passages. With Hot Dreams, Timber Timbre transposes new definitions of historic ambience, unabashedly weaving unity between disparate, charted environments.
