about

Released on Kahvi Collective
kahvi.org/releases.php?release_number=311

A new guest artist (familar perhaps to some of you from previous netlabel releases) known as 'NCThompson'. A purely ambient four track ep, concentrating on the piano solo to bring the tracks together.

Starting with 'Listen, they whisper' - a pleasing journey built on the arpeggios of the piano with subtle harshness brought in, in the form of a pad. Next, Shades of grey is a classic ambient track in the vein of early Sven Vath and Global Communication, with swirling textures complementing the great piano lead throughout.

The city at the edge of the world and Upon white walls go hand in hand as an epic ending to this ep, Bladerunner massiveness mixed in with delicate melodies and chimes. A great ambient ep to chill you out after the previous release from Aleksi.
