Good Weather for an Airstrike - Kenopsia (2021)

Tom Honey or Good Weather for an Airstrike is a respected name on the ambient electronica scene, there's no doubts about it. I posted about his album Little Steps back in 2017 and it's been way too long for that good of an artist really. This year's Kenposia is a brilliant opportunity to come back to the British musician.

The album consists of mild electronica music with neoclassical elements all over it. In his music I find some of Sigur Rós' carefree mood of Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust - a similar nostalgic but happy memories expressed with music that is not too dark yet still slow and moody. There's tons of acoustic, not too imposing sounds that together create a perfect amalgamat of beauty and sadness. But the farther the album goes, the gloomier it gets, the less of sunny autumn and more of the rainy fall it becomes. This kind of dying out is incredibly sad, but also, not very surprising, isn't it?

Kenopsia costs 5 EUR (8 AUD).
