jammingdevice I was a meditation teacher for some years. Meditation music is usually clichéd ambient. This is the first album I’ve heard that sounds like what my meditations feel like; probing, with an ebb and flow of activity and melody, repeating forever. Beautiful and inspired.
Stationary Travels When composing under the guise of Nebel Lang, musician Pablo Damián Ruiz Alcantú uses his piano as a vehicle for creating unrepeatable moments that blend improvisation with environmental and temporal elements. His music emphasizes the textural character of the piano as much as the notes that are being played, but there is no denying the captivating beauty of what ends up on tape. The world we leave with is one of several fine releases Pablo put out this year and follows his preferred structure of prefacing one or two free-flowing long form pieces with a short “situate” track to set the tone.
PadraigC So hard to pick a favourite track, both are relaxing, contemplative and yet one can get lost in them, stitch off and unthink!
A most welcome break from the world these days!
