One thing that always intrigued me about Townsend's music was the usage of ambience. As a fan of ambient music, I can't help but wonder what ambient artists influenced this element in his music?
If I were to venture a guess, I'd say Brian Eno because of the meticulous and perfect production that Townsend puts into every album, and the high importance is has. For some reasion, I also wanna say I hear some Biosphere when it comes to songs like the Death of Music.
Of course, I'm probably wrong about those two. I'd like to point out however, that I don't think he's ever talked his ambient influences, and surely he has some, no?
