Blurred Cities presents an engaging and brilliant sound excursion, crafting poignant pieces with a slight departure from his usual sorrowful dusty neoclassical ambient in favor of more hypnotic and discreetly beat-laden ambient chills.
An engaging and brilliant sound excursion
Francisco Sonur’s music encompasses a wide range of ambient textures and cloudy layers of electronic sounds with a strong emotional connection that drives you through vast inner landscapes. His sound production has been welcomed by numerous DIY labels with a particular interest for challenging bedroom laboratories with sound producers dedicated to lowercase and minimal ambient impressionism including Shimmering Moods, Time Released Sound, and Home Normal.
Sonur’s past releases were remarkably soothing with similar themes and stylistic approach to Hotel Neon, Anthené, Corey Fuller, M. Ostermeier, Federico Durand, Dylan Henner and other contemporary drone-scapers fond of sonic expeditions, heartfelt poetical moves, and sweet sadness shrouding you like a comfortable little place of your choice.
Blurred Cities presents an engaging and brilliant sound excursion, crafting poignant pieces with a slight departure from his usual sorrowful dusty neoclassical ambient in favor of more hypnotic and discreetly beat-laden ambient chills. The subtle melancholic ornaments and introvert vignettes are still abundant but enveloped in pulsating electronic grooves; a bit in the genre developed by The Orb, Gaussian Curves, and Coppice Halifax. All in all this album will lead you to a gentle forest of electronic patterns and quiet repetitive pulses and emotive/melodic moments. A beautiful and relaxing musical experience recommended for fans of ambient house, microhouse and downtempo loops shifting into a sea of meditative softness.
