Bio / Background
Dakota Slim — Hitherto the Aminals Recorded by MRL Dennis at The Record Ranch
Dakota Slim’s third full-length, Hitherto the Aminals, is a sympathetic commentary about ignorance and neglect towards our woodland friends. A young San Francisco-based songwriter, Dakota Slim, a.k.a. Travis Keats Ross, uses animals as a starting point for his meditation on human morality. It’s a fascinating listen, as his music releases a stream of guilt, childhood memories, nostalgia, shame and hope, all at once. A looped wolf howl begins “The Autumn Court,” which layers spooky guitar lines and violent percussion with Ross repeating, “Killing me in open air / Killing me is no fair.” Most of these fifteen songs clock in at under three minutes, showing Ross‘ restraint and respect for the sometimes rambling art of folk songwriting.
The album’s soundscapes meld the organic and the electronic, utilizing technologies and musical ideas ranging from musique concrete to current hip-hop.
