Ambient raindrops with: Neil Foster – Sundrops
So there we go. Election announced after a day of mounting election frenzy. And announced in the pouring rain. Without an umbrella. As you do. The right time to continue with more ambient. This time from Neil Foster.
Neil Foster is an Irish Composer, Multi-instrumentalist and Producer based in Belfast, Northern Ireland. He says his music spans ambient, classical and downtempo electronica. And there’s a beautiful Ambient sensibility at work on the gorgeous glittering Sundrops.
Sundrops is taken from his new album Intimate Dreams. It’s a blissful track. Beatless and combining some gently classical piano with electronic tones.
There’s a real delicacy and precision to his work. Sounds ripple, flutter and lightly tumble. The piano offers a hazy mournful air to compensate for any optimistic tinkling. There’s that sense of motes of dust caught in a beam of sunlight. Swirling, glittering and then the light moves.
Like Sundrops the track they’re beautiful and then fades like a contented sigh.
