Outcry at Fragment II #chill #ambient #electronic
A couple of ambient tracks for your Sunday from Sophomore and boerd.
Sophomore first. Sweden’s Olle Andersson offers Outcry, which is an inappropriately named track. It is a superb piece of drone ambient. Starts very quietly before reaching a crescendo of a hushed library. Nonetheless, this is a wonderful track and manages to be oddly gripping as the synth drone works its way surreptitiously into your brain and won’t let go. Completely compelling.
Next, a welcome return from ambient wizard boerd, who seems to have teamed up with Anjunadeep since last we heard. Fragment II is taken from his forthcoming mini LP Static. A delightful track, more chilled than ambient and managing to be organic despite the electronics. An off kilter clatter to the beats stop the whole thing descending into the smothering blankness of snow. Lovely. Looking forward to the mini LP.
