We cannot know for sure how much and how often UK musician Steve Cowan partakes in habitual levitations. The instrumentation is sparse and slo-o-o-w, yet makes for a dense and rich experience that you can’t help but become absorbed into.

The music trods along like a mammoth, pounding and pulsating with the rhythm of Earth’s very core. As a guitar player, Steve shows admirable restraint, never heading too far in the direction of showing off. But he does find the appropriate moment to pull off some incredibly tasteful, blues-inspired licks on top of his chunky riffs.

Our advice: get comfortable, light up and partake with Steve. You will discover some uncanny depth between the walls of down-tuned guitars.
