musical revisions and reviews 1 "Celer part 1"
#ambient #drone
Hello, while I often struggle with articulating my thoughts clearly, especially when it comes to describing the abstract sensations that flood my mind as I listen to experimental music, I’ll do my best to shape those impressions into this upcoming series of reviews. I hope that someone out there, like me, finds the albums and artists I highlight worth-listening and we could discuss it together.
To begin the series, i've chosen one of the most comfortable and lively, yet still remaining rather experiential and unknown audio experiences - Celer. This project, a collaboration between electronic musicians and sound therapy researchers Will Long and Danielle Baquet-Long, reflects a partnership as much in their artistry as in their life together as spouses. I find their album Nacreous Clouds very representational, showcasing their hallmark techniques and the way they approach dynamics and stereo. I personally find it stunning. The sounds are very consistent, meticolously cohesive, rich with tonality.
Their approach for giving the listener a representation of concrete natural events is absolutely interpretational, though the material is perceived by me as very relatable for some reason, resonates with me as profondly familiar at some point, leading me to think of shared essence of the matter that constitutes us all, as well as what surrounds us. The sound's temperature shifts throughout the album, as being part of the album's main concept of emulating cloud formation process, it does a great job putting me deeper in the context and slowly and softly plunges me deeper in my own, giving the unique kind of self-reflection thoughts a chance to emerge, it is something very similar to dreaming with your nerves.
