Warren Daly had the pleasure of creating music with Cousin Silas for his latest installment of Cousin Silas and Friends on the We Are All Ghosts label. Cousin Silas has cooperated with some of the best artists in the ambient genre over the years. Considering the range of artists, each soundscape is unique to the individual partnership, a product of their pairing, yet each collection is wonderfully cohesive. I guess you could say they all have the Silas touch.
this is the kind of creativity that lives, breathes and makes things happen on the edges of culture – Thomas Mathie (We Are All Ghosts)
