Tranquil notes and delicately evolving tones
Simplicity and calm electronic music from France via UK, aAirial delivers tranquil notes and delicately evolving tones front to back on the latest full-length for Rednetic. The contemplative mood is beautifully stretched as Arovane and port-royal infused hypnotic swells are evidenced on tracks like “Lotus.” Elsewhere, you’ll be hard-pressed not to recall IDM’s birthing grounds where artists like Plod, Plone, and Phonem effortlessly extracted an infinite amount of detail from minimal machinery as emotional rhythms coalesce on tracks like “Unfolding” to the more subdued clicks and upfront beatwork of “Call from Afar.” As Above So Below traverses glowing sunbeams while its ambient undercurrents (ref. “Call from Afar,” “Out Of Sight”) ebb and flow like lost time capsules from an earlier timeline, now dusted off once again in these roaring 20s. A welcomed retreat of soothing, chilled, and melancholic audio portraits.
As Above So Below is available on Rednetic. [Bandcamp | Release page]
