Comment: it is an elegant suite of five
compositions by Mèryll Ampe whose music used to shift between artificial and organic
compartments. In truth, all the artist`s music seems to be produced by using
digital software/hardware only, however, the whole is produced in a way to
expose it to mellower and warmer sounds as well. So it can be admitted it is
something of an unusual sort of digital sound art music of which usually tends
to be quite airtight on its own. Although Passing
Over chimes in a restraint way the artist seems to have much fun within predetermined
borders. More concretely, it is about microscopic noise bits which constitute
different kinds of patterns, it is about stereo effects and undulating electronic
oscillations which used to travel from one channel to another in a thought-provoking
way. Jelly is filled with organically
sounding brown noises being turned up and an obviously vocal descended endless
drone and all of that is surrounded by electro-acoustic soup (at least
resembling such sort of sound though not being this sound technically). Now and
then some templates within the tracks are slowed down to an extent where
electronic music sounds truly dreamily and otherworldly, at times it is
counterpointed by abstract rhythmic structures and digital vapour. Consequently
on can say the result is formally and emotionally sustaining to bring interesting
sonic elements from within dark corners of electronic music to the surface.
Let`s pass over along with it. The outing is a part of the discography of
BRUITS.
