aymeric de tapol: winter dance

The Brussels-based Aymeric de Tapol is a prolific producer of audio across styles and mediums. With Winter Dance he's found a sound that's perfectly at home on Vlek. These six mossy drone compositions seem to reflect de Tapol's interest in "climatic" music: their ingredients are simple but there is a real sense of space and life to them, as if the producer has not created them so much as simply captured them in their natural habitat. Sounds blossom, proliferate and die away, their surfaces cracked and pitted with the everyday detritus of life; even the uncanniest moments have a strangely comforting warmth to them
