artis: caecilia

Four ear-pleasing transmissions from Safe Trip associate, Artis. The ethereal, dreamy, arpeggio-driven throb of "Panthera Pardus", with its poignant tone and undulating lead lines, is meant as a warning. The same could be said of "Cetacea", where melancholic synthesizer sounds and meandering electronics gently wind their way around hybrid electronic/acoustic percussion. "Giganthopithecus" is a composition littered with frequent increases in percussive intensity and a mind-altering melodic refrain. The colorful melodic fluidity, futurist new age construction, and layered wooden drum hits of "Delphinae" are deeply affective.
