Ended Monday and welcomed Tuesday after my swim with Sewn by Mountains, released on Apestaartje in 2006.

Mark Richardson wrote for Pitchfork:

"Brandon Anderegg and Koen Kolkamp, Brooklynites who run the Apestaartje label and work together as Mountains, fit the bill. Here on their second record they've assembled eight discrete tracks that are immersive atmospheres in miniature; each erects a palpable space for three or four or 12 minutes before moving on. "Computer" is listed as one of the instruments, but I imagine the digital realm enters at a late stage in the process; mostly, Sewn is an organic potpourri of old-school sound-- guitar, accordion, field recordings, primitive oscillators, and so on. And the sound is balanced nicely, every instrument patiently stepping forward in its proper proportion."
