Two years after their previous release, Riven, two ambient artists - Minnesota-based Mike Graff aka Dear Gravity and Tennessee's Kirk Smith (We Dream of Eden) created together a short but beautiful EP. Released by Echoes Blue Music Holocene makes a fantastic blend of delicate ambient and neoclassical soundscape.
The short album depicts "the concept of passing life down to the next generation" and tries to pour the artists' personal feelings onto the audience. Musically speaking it's an electronic soundscape that is first of all moody and, secondly, ready too strike awe in the audience with the tasteful use of synth sounds. Although there are traces of melodies (like the leitmotif in Adventus), the album's main goal has to be creating this audio place where a listener can get lost for a second - the slower, calmer tracks here (like Tragedy & Triumph) and their homogeneous, thick soundscape surely work that way.
Holocene costs 5 USD.
