EllE favorites 2 by Cycle of Hands published on 2019-03-30T19:30:25Z This playlist is a sonic journey that stays on the more tame side with very expressive pieces that are piano dominated. The Acoustics start it off with a long journey of a song that is sparse and plays with a soundscape foundation with sparse elements that slowly evolve over and alongside hypnotic drums and chant like vocal parts. Abrasive synths coming in and out add an element of surprise and urgency. Next is Alec Tunks with a mystical, nocturne like tune that shows what power can emerge from simplicity. His composition echoes some of the classical greats like Chopin and Debussy and could definitely yank some tears out. Personally my favorite piano style and I could listen on repeat third is one of my favorite songs on soundcloud which is Home by Skyline tigers. The loose kit sound creates a sparse groove that allows a swirl of piano and pads to accommodate Her gorgeous emotive voice that evokes nostalgia and comfort. She really did capture the bittersweet dichotomy of feeling perfectly safe and comfortable at home but also knowing it will never feel the same as it did when we were young and carefree. Next track "the Pattern" words will never satisfy. The vocal Mix of SLT and Last relic is a thing to behold. The lyrics along with *thommos* arrangement create a quietly epic and melancholic commentary on the mysteriousness of the Universe and our journey through the seemingly infinite patterns we navigate to get closer to "heaven" and or the place of ultimate unity. (my personal take on it) The thing that stuck out to me was how well this song captured that grander story line that weaves in and out of our daily awareness and our own concerns about whether or not we are even on the right path. When trying to find the correct word all I could think of was 'ineffable' and how well this song makes me ponder on the ineffable of the greater origins of this experience of life. Next song "song 955" (WOW THATS A LOT OF SONGS) is a contemporary classical piece on the warm strings of a nylon string guitar. Classical elements on acoustic guitar warm the heart and sooth the soul. This particular piece calls to a lovely blue skied day but not without the memory of hardships and the pain experienced to arrive at a temporal bliss. Guillaume Lecointe skill is impossible to deny. More interpretations and descriptions soon!
