Described by Marco Lucchi as “just a suite of studies upon an arpeggio for piano” these works convey a pensive mood through interpretation by various instruments such as a mellotron and even a crackling record.
“Le joli coeur” is a large and growing work by various artists under the collective name orchestra eclettica e sincretista, which builds a diverse collection of variations on a very simple theme, just a few piano chords.
Shimmering, dark, haunted and textural, these guitar-centered soundscapes expertly straddle the zone between abstract ambience and melody.
One of the definitions of complacency is “to be completely satisfied right where you are.” And satisfied you will be, settled back in a comfortable chair, as you take in these mellow compositions which seem to shimmer like snowflakes in the air. This work evokes a slower, more peaceful approach to life.
This is an album to play when you are sitting along, reminiscing about bygone times. Subtle, restful melodies and sounds of nature guide the mind to positive, yet nostalgic reveries.
Tribe of Astronauts manifests yet again on Webbed Hand with this bevy of mutant sounds, showing eclectic styles of expression, as is to be expected of a collective of artists.
This is the third collaboration between Mystified and Saluki Regicide. This time the concept is unique: one is assigned all frequencies below 1kHz, and the other gets everything above. The upper and lower halves were not united until the final mix, and then only adjusted for compatible levels and fades.
Beyond Absence debuts on Webbed Hand with this engaging and meditative set of instrumental improvisations. A delightful eyes-closed ambient journey, expressing a peaceful approach to music. These recordings are a personal journey of two friends, seeking to find the deeper impulses and feelings in music.
Alan Florit’s project Snowman Lost His Head has recorded a collection of deep moodscapes called “Monster.” These compositions are a reverie on the human condition, as illustrated in abstract sounds.
Drone Wallah finally contributes a piece to Webbed Hand’s popular Rain series. Added to the ambient organ drones are the subtle sounds of nature which characterize the Rain series.
