Montreal-based artist Jim Audet unveils a dynamic mystique across “All That Keeps Me Breathing,” moving seamlessly from cinematic orchestral melding — with strings and clamoring percussion — into ghostlier folk intrigue. “You’re all that keeps me breathing,” his vocals let out as a soaring backing reflection melds with stylish guitar twangs and simmering strings. The impassioned vocal tone and beholden tonal shifts remind fondly of The Decemberists. “All That Keeps Me Breathing” is a stirringly memorable success from Jim Audet.
