Description

'Blutt's nine woozy compositions are inspired by a contemplative road trip with a friend, and the mysterious muffled music heard from an unidentified source. It was a combination of jazz and classical music that haunted Belaga's wanderings through the Byzantine town Gallipoli, and soon infected his dreams of long-gone civilizations. This record is its outcome, where organic instrumentals and electronic production merge into a sound that's both contemporary and ancient. Samples of mewing incantations and tape hiss sway atop the waltzing thud of piano chords on 'Sigh'. Composite layers of Belaga's cello play in downcast harmony on 'Rust'. There's a wistful sense for the romantic, in the eerie rhythm of a piece like 'Momentum'. The quarter tones of an Eastern European and Middle Eastern folk scale probe a profound melancholy via Kai Knight's violin. Its notes are haunted by a field recording of running water on 'Unsoft', echoes of panpipes and a Jew's harp on opener 'Lilt'.
