I discovered her already four year ago when she released her album 沉睡 , now the Taiwanese artist known as Green Horizon is back with this brilliant release called The Place I Buried Memories. And as always, she brings with her music tons of borderline ethereal and noisy ambient pop.
Her take on the genre is simple: very slow melodies with her beautiful, distorted voice and minimal arrangements in the backgrounds. Those can involve heavy basses and very, very noise guitar drones as it is in the opening track Once, but more characteristic for the artist is basing the compositions on piano keys that dance around very subtle noise in the backgrounds. The way the tracks here are made, makes the audience pay attention to every word the artist utters, every note the piano enchants and every bit of noise.
It's no surprise that her lyrics are filled with heavy and hopeless melancholia, "The rain has fallen all the day/Outside my room and inside me" is just an example, but such a beautiful one too - the songs are fairly simple and yet poetic enough to hide the pain within an artistic form. For me, it makes them only more poignant and telling a lot about the artist's melancholic soul.
The Place I Buried Memories costs whatever you want to pay.
