Following his widely acclaimed album An Garradh (SUBEX 040LP, 2021), Steven Anderson (aka Letters from Mouse) returns with another highly evocative offering on Subexotic. Tarbolton Bachelors Club is a trip into local history via modular synthesis, found sound, and glimpses of poetry, uncovering links to one of Scotland's most famous icons, Rabbie Burns. Burns proves to be the catalyst, as LFM begins to unearth interconnecting events and places, with each track linking back to the locality in diverse and provocative ways. The "Tarbolton Bachelors Club" itself, was started by Rabbie Burns as a gentleman's club for debate and discussion on the latest topics and, as such, neatly reflects LFM's rich dialogue with locality and history. As with An Garradh, Anderson proves his masterful skill in crafting magical backdrops of place and time, was not a one-off. LFM tells a wonderful story and must be commended for another truly captivating album.
