Typically, I am NOT a big fan of songs like “The Fire That Burns On Rough Bounce.” But there’s something so compelling about it, especially because nothing else on his SoundCloud sounds like it.
I met Lara CrÅft through Andre this past May at that Sun Araw show, and found out he’s from all over the Earth, has a Finnish wife, and lives with main-main-main dude, Andre. Maybe because I have back-story and creative-thinking context on a fellah who’s adventured a lot throughout the world, I try to imagine his travels while listening to “The Fire That Burns On Rough Bounce.” The song itself is pensive and longing. You can hear him thinking about the song via reluctant instruments being deployed. All rhythmic instruments, which comes close to Lara CrÅft prior sample-driven production work. His voice is exact and non-imitative and ruggedly gentile.
I can’t ever imagine “The Fire That Burns On Rough Bounce” on a television show or during a movie-montage. As much money and praise as Lara CrÅft deserves, he luckily also remains very intricate with craftsmanship of beat and preparedness. This sort of craftsmanship would actually negates a lot of commonly made man-with-guitar music, as it shuffles itself constantly. Lara CrÅft lives within “The Fire That Burns On Rough Bounce” and manifests his own destiny playfully in tune:
