BIRDS OF TIN:ENE .key ray. |
MANIFOLD | 15.01.02
Birds
Of Tin collaborate with Scott Hudgins, aka ENE,
to create a sublime disc of strict light ambience.
Electronic ambience here will not mean keyboards or synth
however,
nor does it mean "techno".
It means that the sound is airy, clean and spacious.
Expressive and rendered with the precision of one who would
arrange beats.
But there's no percussion, it's a sustained drift and beautiful
emotion that weaves its way through all the tracks.
Each track with it's own feeling, history and structure.
The only way to soak up every second of Key Ray is to either
lay back, close the eyes and move straight into it for an
hour, or to listen to it over and over.
You'll want to do the latter, as this is light, beautiful,
mysterious
ambient worthy of Tear Ceremony, Zero Ohms or Robert Rich.
Great stuff.
On the new Mystery Sea label, who I hope we can see more great
releases like this from in the future.
