Walking alone, #Downtempo with: Murakamo – Walk In The Park #Chill #Electronic
Here’s some beautiful music for unlovely days of grey skies and rain that is ever near from Murakamo.
Murakamo is Luuc O from Groningen, Netherlands. He is one half of former IDM/Glitch duo Ludique. Murakumo is a solo project with a more reflective and downtempo soul. The featured track is Walk In The Park. It’s taken from the Identical Days EP.
Luuc says that the EP contains songs “salvaged from an old rusty USB stick.” We should all rejoice at them being saved. Walk In The Park is an exceptional piece of downtempo. It manages to be completely electronic and yet suffused with emotion. There are synthetic strings, a bobbly lead synth that carries the ear along. The beats have that IDM tinge but without ever needing to shout about it. Gives the whole thing a heartfelt yet quirky appeal. A truly delightful tune. Available on Bandcamp (€4).
