With all the hustle and bustle of a new year, not not so new, I missed that Boris Blank released an album in February.
Taking a deep dive into ambient waters, Resonance comprises a dozen pieces of music surfacing from a commission for the FORTYSEVEN thermal wellness spa in Switzerland, designed by Mario Botta and situated in Baden on the River Limmat. Somewhere that's likely to be beyond my reach but at least Boris' music can help me get there in my imagination.
Having been immersed in the music of Mixmaster Morris / The Irresistible Force recently, and regularly dipping into Richard Norris' continuing Music For Healing series, Boris' work flows naturally from this and is a welcome pool of calm in a sea of chaos, to paraphrase one of my previous mixtape titles.
Four songs from Resonance have been released with videos so far, the most recent last Friday. In reverse chronological order by release, here are Elements Of Life, Angel Base, Defying Gravity and Resonance.
Lovely, just lovely.
Such a nice surprise, and what great videos as well!
ReplyDeleteYes, I seem especially drawn to the Defying Gravity video but it's all great, isn't it?
