This third album from pub philosopher Aidan Moffat was recorded before the break-up of Arab Strap and it’s suitably reflective. More peaceful than his previous excursions into electronica, ‘Dip’ sounds like a funeral march as horns and ghostly murmurs glide with seagulls across an ambient soundscape that takes in a rough sea. It would seem that the pissed-up squalor that usually surrounds Moffat has been washed away by these seaside field recordings.
