Premiere: From The Mouth of The Sun: “Sitting in a Roofless Room”.

All though you can argue this to be a bit of an early announcement, we simply can’t hold it back: From The Mouth of The Sun‘s Woven Tide is already one of our favourite records this year, exploring the classical ambient space with bright, magnificent beauty. Being the result of a collaboration between Gothenburg’s Dag Rosenqvist (aka Jasper TX) and Topeka, Kansas composer Aaron Martin, both Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Berlin-based composer Mac Richter will instantely come to mind throughout its 44 minute long spin. However, I can’t help but drawing an additional line to Tim Hecker in Woven Tide; sometimes playing with vast elements of drone somewhere deep inside of their beautiful, organic creature. It almost fits a little too well to the sound of my own shoes walking down the slowly awaking streets of Berlin — adopting sounds from the environment like a soundtrack to a film, but with constant motion in this chaotic world.

Have a first listen to “Sitting in a Roofless Room” below, and don’t forget to look out for this musical journey on January 31 via Experimedia.
