Frans deWaard, Vital Weekly:
In a short note, David Lee Myers writes that music on 'Frontiers' is "gentle ambient and atmospheric, avoiding dystopianism but by no means mellifluous" Noted! And he doesn't recommend headphones when listening, which I rarely do when I listen to music at home. Like the music on 'Frontiers', I prefer physical space for music. The cover has two lengthy quotes by Jorgen Luis Borges and Jean-Paul Sartre. Myers and his modular setup slash feedback system is a man of many faces. While much of his music has a strong presence, especially when played in that physical space, the nine pieces of this new disc have a tranquil approach. It's Saturday afternoon, the air is grey, and it's getting cold outside; no reason whatsoever to leave the house or even the chair. I didn't want to get up and 'do something', not even thinking about a review. You have to get and do commit the words about this music. Sitting quietly in a chair, reading a book, sipping tea and playing the quiet music of David Lee Myers was all I wanted to do. I got up, twice even, to start the disc again; the option of 'repeat play' didn't cross my mind (and I admit, I hardly ever do cross my mind but come to think of it, it would be an idea; play a release on repeat for as long as needed to write a review), but this little exercise is enough. I have to get up and press play again, but I also find that much-needed energy to write about the music. Sitting behind my desk, l always seem to listen to a bit differently. It's only now that I notice that it's not all quiet but that Myers waves in delicate unrest, just below the surface sometimes but also right above the surface. Music that works well when played loud but also with the volume down a bit. Rich and powerful, but also intimate.
