Environments II

Glacial strings and choral swells meet intricate field recordings. A cinematic, frozen landscape that trades breakbeats for orchestral depth.

A vast, lonely beauty that feels like watching a sunrise over an uninhabited arctic shelf.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition into the nine-minute expanse of Glacier Part 1 where the strings begin to bleed into the synthesizers.
The way the choral elements in Serengeti emerge like a mirage through a haze of electronic static.
The brittle, lo-fi percussion on North Arctic that sounds like footsteps on frozen ground.
