Corpsey
bandz ahoy
As I walked home on this pristine summer evening, the sky a gorgeous milky blue, planes gliding silently in the distance, the trees murmuring, etc. This came on shuffle and I wondered why it's trancey synths were so perfect for the weather.
It seems to me that these synths "appear" absolute clearly in a space, with the echo suggesting dissolution that is totally visible. The isolation of these sounds in space suggests a clear view for miles.
Also the haziness of them as they echo and dissolve into the distance, it's suggestive of tremulous desert air, distant mirages.
And also inertia, the inertia of the track suggesting a hot, clear day, no reason to move. Stifling.
For a long time I've been idly musing on the effect of landscape (including weather) on how we hear and make music (and everything else). Not just nature's landscape but manmade structures.
I suppose this might well be an avenue of dematerialisation.
