Harsh, dense soundscapes and whispered vocals make for an often-unsettling listening experience. - Greg Glasgow, DU Today

Wispy synth chords ebb and flow as gentle, down-tempo breaks wander mysteriously through the mix. Fat analog tones disrupt the placid mood and bring a sinister edge. - Listen.com

Emergent Collective One Shudderflowers

An Early Morning Letter, Displaced is the ambient recording project of studio artist, Joseph Labrecque. Founded in 1999, this expressive undertaking combines elements of dark ambient, ethereal, and touches of atmospheric neo-classical to form a unique sound. Born from the initial concept of infusing whispered poetry within an expressive aural backdrop, this venture has surpassed its origin to become a true force in the area of independent, underground music.

In addition to the publication of A Prison of Oneself and two previous EP recordings, An Early Morning Letter, Displaced presents a new collection of material, Shudderflowers, out now.
