An exquisite, compelling journey of sounds, with usual blacking and devastating melodious e-guitar melancholia, crystal-like natural timbres, sustained drones, and blissful electronic textures.
Always been enthusiastic with new sound materials from Shrine. Ordeal published years ago for Cyclic Law made an absolute amazing impression, deep, resonant and poignant story-telling ambient structures. Titled Quintessence—this new one is also found in the honorable Cryo Chamber catalog. It is a relevant, complex and beautifully drifting album which is a good follow to the dramatic and mesmerizing Ordeal. A diaphanous, sinuous, ethereal synthscaping affair with signs of dolorous brightness, the musical ingredients and compositional schema brought to the fore admits a continuity with the previous offering. The glimmering cinematic textures are put a step further with the addition of a vast array of percussive elements and with the presence of a sharp and enveloping sounding architecture and a discreetly flowing, unearthly vocalization. Quintessence delivers an exquisite, compelling journey of sounds, with usual blacking and devastating melodious e-guitar melancholia, crystal-like natural timbres, sustained drones, and blissful electronic textures. The rich, eloquent palette of sound colors is served by an impeccable technical mastering. Quintessence is an ambient healing adventure of mystical and pure emotional resonances that will easily ravish all fans of cosmic electro-inspired meditative excursions.
Quintessence is available on Cryo Chamber.
