Glinca :: Tament (Fluid Audio)

In the current landscape of experimental ambient and electroacoustic music, Tament stands out precisely because it resists easy categorization.

Glinca doesn’t so much give answers as pose questions about how we listen, about what we overlook, and about how sound itself carries memory.
