Bring Me the Head of Kyle Bobby Dunn

Bring Me The Head of Kyle Bobby Dunn is a full length double compact disc album from Canadian composer Kyle Bobby Dunn. It was recorded at Bunce Cake studios in Brooklyn and remote parts of Canada. The compositions are mostly long, slowly evolving minimal works created from electric guitar processing. The album is his second double album since 2010's Low Point release, A Young Person's Guide to Kyle Bobby Dunn.

The album was remastered in 2021 by Maryam Sirvan and Milad Bagheri who worked on the 2019 album, From Here to Eternity. It was reissued and released in a limited triple vinyl pressing by Paris, France based Diggers Factory and the remastered collection was made available digitally everywhere.

Critical reception
Its magnificence convinces me that it is one of the best ambient drone records of recent times. It perfectly reflects the dream state; of deep sleep and kind dreams, the brilliance of a beaming light glowing onto us and caressing us out of sleep and into an awakening. Kyle Bobby Dunn encourages us to remain forever dreaming. Bon Voyage.

An engrossing warmth and focus that compare to Stars of the Lid at their most involving, but with a particular vision that is all Dunn's own.

Bring Me The Head Of Kyle Bobby Dunn manages to be profound with no need for words – Dunn has reflected on how crucial music is as a vehicle of communication for him and these compositions, in their subtle shifts and patient, circular melodies, make broad emotional gestures while still being tied to specific memories, for him and for whoever listens. In a year when the more general conversations in independent music have been focused around maximalism and the influence of the internet, Dunn’s music is testament to what can be achieved with minimal instrumentation and sheer scope of vision and reflection. These pieces sound like meditations on memory – its happiness and bitterness, and its almost ungraspable or indescribable significance – and, like memories, they beg to be returned to again and again.
