About a week ago I was reviewing Cursory Asperses and now it's already time for a new release by the Celer. This duo really can't sit down and relax for just a bit I guess, because even during their vacation on the island Capri (Italy) they have been working on now music which resulted in the new release named after the island: Capri.
The album counts a total of 29 short pieces that are floating by calmly by. The album in this way can be compared with their previous album Nacreous Clouds. But instead of billowing clouds one should think of streaming water on this album. The music reminds me a lot of breaking waves on the beach. A warm summer night.
What also is a different is the use of the instruments here. Where in most of their releases the sound of the instruments is always heavy processed here you have the welcome break from this by a piano that sometimes appears from the soundscapes.
There is one thing though which is a shame (again). There is no trace of the field-recordings used, either they are pushed completely back to the inaudible or they are completely processed. I think this is a shame. But it is the only thing.
Recommended and my favourite by Celer so far. |
