On deck for today’s premiere is an analog trip from Estonian artist, Taevalaotus off of their forthcoming vinyl album titled ‘Ringlus’. Conceptually the release is rooted in field recordings and an ethos of self reliance as stated by the label, ‘wanders along the path of its creator's fantasy, with no Third-party samples used, and the music's fabric woven from original, natural sounds such as analog oscillators, vibrations of bass guitar strings, sonic echoes of nature, and cracking of the ice recorded underwater.’

Phobia evokes a few emotions during its run time as the beginning is pensive, and withdrawn. The melancholic pads, and frenetic drum machine work, add a sense of chaos to the mix. Just as things begin to coalesce, there’s a change of pace and the second half switches to a bubblier atmosphere, gone are the scattered percussion sequences and in their place, bright synths, and comforting melodies.

Phobia, and in turn the rest of the ‘Ringlus’ album will be out both on vinyl and digitally, September 1st.
