The Music Discussion forum has replaced the old Lyrics and Samples forum and the Live Scene and Music Reviews forum. This forum is used to discuss anything relating to Music including Orbital topics, the live scene including Orbital gigs past, present and future. This section is an ideal place to post your live gigs reviews and album / single reviews. This forum can also be used to discuss Orbital lyrics and samples. The website will never disclose or confirm samples for legal reasons - so this is the next best thing.

Meadows & Labyrinths: Very nice ambient stuff

Post by stimpee »

This sounds like very nice stuff indeed. The two full tracks are around 22 mins in total. Here's the blurb:

Meadows & Labyrinths - Meadows & Labyrinths (3" EP)

Meadows and Labyrinths is a psychedelic ambient piece consisting of two tracks which are a part of a larger work by Luke Hazard (aka: Plantre) which has been in the making for over two years. these songs have a heavy emphasis on noise, and sometimes visit much more abrasive sounds than one would expect to hear in most ambient, but not without conviction. transformation is a key theme, and the changes these songs go through are both welcoming and unpredictable. a beautiful mystery not too unlike what the title implies.

Meadows & Labyrinths is being released on 3" cd-r each personally designed and hand printed by the artist himself. the surfaces of the cds are textural, and each one has its own unique design made with imprints of leaves, string, and anything else Luke could get his hands on. a lot of time and effort has gone into this project, so these will only be available in limited quantities.

support Earstroke and our first hard copy release by getting lost in our Meadows & Labyrinths.

Stimpee - just because no one replies it doesnt mean the forum is dead. Maybe no one has had time to check it out yet...
