Fabio Orsi – In The Quiet Of A Short Winter, Every Hidden Thing Finds A Voice Sharper Than Memory – LP (White)

Silentes

Six touching tracks that, starting from quiet ambient atmospheres, initially soft, tenuous, and crepuscular, gradually seem to soar… ascending towards celestial spaces, revealing ever-wider and brighter landscapes below, ever-more distant horizons, ever-more infinite spaces…

Highly evocative progressions, guided by sober and delicate melodies and driving, pulsating bass lines, wonderfully deep (best enjoyed with a good stereo system to truly appreciate them), the kind that make your stomach churn before you even perceive the exact frequency and harmonic progression, often “set” in sober rhythmic patterns that mark the time, making a sonic journey even more dynamic and compelling. If it doesn’t surprise you, it’s probably only because you’ve already had the opportunity to explore and “plumb” Fabio Orsi‘s most recent discography, and are already accustomed to the best of what this new wave of distinctly electronic but ambient-inspired music has to offer.
