Utopia State of Mind with Kim Anker and Nutrium #chill #ambient
I suspect I post more dystopian tracks than utopian ones. Let’s redress the balance with two positively chilled tunes from opposite sides of the world in Denmark’s Kim Anker and New Zealand’s Nutrium.
Kim Anker offers the more delicate pleasures of the pair on State of Mind. This is a gorgeous piece of synth chill. But doesn’t owe too much to Vangelis in that long tones aren’t such a feature. It’s got a delightfully perky air that lifts the spirit.
Nutrium offers more organic charms on the straightforwardly optimistic Utopia. Despite being a pretty ambient piece it’s got some determinedly forward beats that gives it extra strength. The problem with the track is that at two and a half minutes it’s too damn short.
