Sergey Lunev, known also as The Best Pessimist, comes back with new album, this time coming also back to Drawing The Endless Shore. This project shows his second face, this less of ambient-post-rock and more of trip-hop freedom and idm's love for beats.
Still though, it's difficult to call "Drama" an album without a unique atmosphere. It's enough to listen to the piano keys background in "Negative" or really moody middle part of "Archetype" to get some of it. On the other hand, there's just enough of electronic "obstacles", backgrounds and various beats creating the trip-hop structure that are made with live (or half-live) drums.
There's also some of the ambient, autumn-melancholic atmosphere that crawls from under the shiny electronics' spotlights from time to time, especially in my favourite "The Caretaker". Nevertheless, it's one of the most dance-able propositions on my blog this year. Until tomorrow.
"Drama" is available for pay-what-you-want.
