Ensemble Economique: “Vanishing Point”.
November 29, 2011, 0 comments
One of the most thoroughly anticipated releases has finally arrived this week, Ensemble Economique‘s new full-length Crossing the Path, By Torchlight, out now on Dekorder. The title alone should convince you to drop everything and run to the next vinyl dealer but let us nevertheless add that the follow-up to last year’s stellar Not Not Fun LP Psychical adds six more brilliant pieces of oppressive cinematic soundscaping to Brian Pyle’s already more than impressive oeuvre. Take “Vanishing Point”: a slow-burning, gently meandering yet also constantly threatening score for every introspective trip you could possibly be afraid of, undeniably beautiful but at the same time painfully unsettling, serving as a reminder that we’ll never know if we’re still here in only seven minutes’ time.
Crossing the Path, By Torchlight is available via Boomkat.
