Guitar-based ambient music, blissful, beautiful, melodic, droning and melancholy, with many atmospheric samples and some lyrics. No synths or sequencers were used in making this album, just guitars and many pedals and effects.
Bio / Background
Austere - Remittance
Reviewed by Dodds Wiley for Ambient.us Webzine
The shadowy duo from Portland, Oregon known as Austere have released a fantastic new album. Known for very high quality abstract ambient music, this is one of their best. The fact that it is based on guitar generated sounds, which is unusual for them, makes it all the more exciting.
Beautifully done, the textures and moods range from shimmering, droning beauty to forlorn, moody melancholy.
The overall impression of this album is that of a fever dream or hallucination. There is a feeling of remembrance, of an individual examining past memories. It's very moving, and the occasional use of brief vocal samples imparts just the right touch. There are moments of great emotion and intensity in these well crafted beatless soundscapes.
Austere has constructed a magnificent work that is rich and vibrant.
