Michael Gordon, a.k.a. Mike Abercrombie or half of the famous ambient duo North Atlantic Drift, is another artist who released a great, very moody album on the Polar Seas label. Placid guarantees a fantastic and relaxing time with some quality music.
The album is built around delicate piano sounds that are washed under by extremely subtle electronica. The melodies here are ambient-like ghostly, almost intangible so it takes some focus to catch this beauty. But if you are able to do so without any distractions, it is also very satisfying. Especially that Gordon doesn't shy away from very long and very peaceful soundscapes, most prominently in melting into the blue and gather at the edges with its rain-like piano keys that make everything so much sadder and more beautiful at the same time.
Placid costs 3.5 EUR (5 CAD).
