Herd – Tangents 41 – 47
We had a mix from Herd this morning in a post about influences. Now, here’s a post about the present, with his latest ambient album. This is from an on-going series called Tangents. Available on ‘name your price’ basis.
Tangents 41-47 is seven tracks but really feels a single piece (the bandcamp version is seven separate tracks but the FSOL Digital version is a single track). There’s a connection in mood and emotion. In that sense it does link to FSOL’s Lifeforms single with its myriad mixes all seemingly connected. Sounds drift in and out, as if in a dream. There’s a mix between the organic and the inorganic. If you’re looking for some 4/4/ beats you’re going to be sadly disappointed. This is a journey into soundscape, even a bit cinematic, the horror of the mind. Perhaps this is what they mean about “dreaming is nursed in darkness.”
From soundcloud and buy from FSOL Digital
