Dael Phonom reveals a snapshot of perhaps what’s to come, simmering ambient electronics from yesteryear.
Simmering ambient electronics from yesteryear
Coming across as rusty electronics, downtempo grooves and timid ambient bits encompass Dael Phonom’s brisk four track extended player. Where improvised soundscapes shimmer and drift away on “Biberto,” tracks like “Be” carve a more pronounced and emotional tone—the soundtrack to a lost period of time, cinematic and nostalgic to the core. The title track flips the equation with lively drumming and Squarepusher-infused melodics that feels like a vintage outtake and a sublime shift from its counterparts. “Morphing” closes with cyclic ambient fizz-fuzz tones, its dilapidated beats carrying the piece across the horizon, exploring a contemplative mood. Overall Dael Phonom reveals a snapshot of perhaps what’s to come, simmering ambient electronics from yesteryear.
