Echoes of the Soul - In an Ocean of Shipwrecks (2018) EN

Classically neoclassical music from France, Echoes of the Soul is a one man project and it's not without this amateur vibe, but also is greatly engaging. Whoever the author is, has already released quite a lot of material and the newest addition is an album called In an Ocean of Shipwrecks.

The album is filled with piano music "with influences from Post-Rock, Progressive, Minimalist music". Those influences are also tangible in the omnipresent samples from movie dialogues and the choice of the sources is not super obvious as the artist reached to Dark Knight in The Soldiers of an Endlesss Eclipse or von Trier's Melancholia amongst others (also to Chaplin's Dictator which is one obvious choice for a change)

All the same, the samples lead the audience through the album that "is about all the violence and the sadness that we all, humans, cause and experience amongst the other beings, on Earth". So it's a kind of music rather to think to than relax (especially when Chaplin shouts out his famous monologue). And it's appreciated.

In an Ocean of Shipwrecks costs whatever you want to pay.
