The Grey Lake is a long-distance collaboration between two artists, built from an exchange of tones, drones, found sounds, and field recordings. The project's name reflects both artists' identities and creative approaches: the dark ambient soundscapes of Ben Powell (LLYN Y CWN) merge with the reel-to-reel tape manipulations and granular textures of Christopher Olson (STANDARD GREY). Together, they craft new sonic tableaux and evocative atmospheres for the imagination. Dense, immersive drones, delicately layered textures, and rich, enveloping dark ambience.

Mastered by Robin Storey (Rapoon).

"Dark sounds that immerse the listener in a misty, hazy, and secluded atmosphere... An intercontinental collaboration resulting in music that captures the harsh, desolate, and simultaneously beautiful aspects of wild nature. At times, the music sounds as bleak as the weather can be in some godforsaken place. The interplay between dark ambient and tape manipulation works wonderfully, creating a delightfully wintry album" (Luminous Dash).
