After releasing the relatively straightforward Castaway on a Houseboat in 2000, Heyl began to work with loops/noise/feedback within his acoustic folk pieces. This over-riding concept became a staple for his next, aptly titled EP: Amateur Loops. Recorded entirely in his bedroom studio over a period of six months, the disc uses its lo-fi production and sparse insrumentationto its advantage, layering tracks of acoustic guitar, looped feedback and heartfelt vocals to create a dense, warm sound.
The disc was well-recieved, even as Tim moved on to more beat-driven sounds, collaborating with Coltrane Motion for We Are the Media We Love, a split cd that sheds the artists' more lo-fi tendencies in exchange for crisp drum loops and electronic cutups, without abandoning the personal touch that defined their earlier work.
