NEW VINYL LP ON ZEAL RECORDS 2015
180 GRAM VINYL
This slice of no frills ambient comes from Kevin Imbrechts, a bedside composer seeking to communicate his unabashed love of neo-classical and post-rock. On #1, his own attempt at minimalism comes through both processing and more formalised composition, the two combining for a record in which forlorn melodies come creeping out of unmoveable soundscapes. Lets go.
What Imbrechts makes is both sublime and grandiose; the plucked guitar notes that punctuate the gentle noise wall of Llyr sound exalted with the crystalline sound of London Grammar, echoing out against acoustics that seem to have suddenly transpired, the song expanding outward from its suffocating setting. His use of noise processing, in the meantime, is both assimilating and gentle, creating a torrid backdrop that is nonetheless entirely listenable: in its brief time on earth, Interlude I recalls the sweet but caustic drone of Secret Pyramid.
