Blank River ranges from cinematic textures and post-rock crescendos to plaintive acoustic finger picking. Taking cues from folk, blues, pop and film soundtracks, this music takes a more melodic turn than most of Daniel's previous work.

Hidden within the organic orchestration, however, are ciphers more in keeping with Daniel's background in experimental music: field recordings, subtle electronic drones and electronic treatments follow the melodies around like grey shadows.
