Dynamic and essential ambient panoramas
Ard Bit (aka Rotterdam-based composer Ard Janssen) offers eleven ambient pieces on Music For Delirious Episodes, carefully weaving almost invisible soundtracks as far as the ears can hear. With ebbs and flows, subtle atmospheric particles drift and sway, calmly pulling us into its serene aural vistas. While predominantly light and airy, audible strands tangle with synth shadows, microscopic instrumentation, and field recordings strewn throughout. These microsound textures and tones offer bewildered nostalgia; taking us far, far away. How Ard Bit manages to create such vast sound fields, so precisely layered, with an abstracted trajectory, is beyond comprehension. Each piece gliding through each other, whether played in sequential or shuffled order, these are tunes and trips for the next plateau. Where baffling yet minimalist forms infinity stretch and low-flying sonic structures expand beyond our universe, Music For Delirious Episodes is quite an achievement—delivering dynamic and essential ambient panoramas.
Music For Delirious Episodes is available on Phainomena/Shipwrec. [Bandcamp]
