about

This is a bit of a concept album. It's meant to be a physical release with two sides.

First being the Taut side. This side explores how short and tight an ambient song can be. Distilled in length. But still drawing out a sense of time longer than it is.

The second side, Untamed, stands at the other end of ambient music. An album side that's only one song. Equal in length to everything presented on the first.

Presented together, the Taut and the Untamed. Each trying to stretch in a different direction.

Created in the last third of 2023 with a combination of modular synths, traditional and untraditional hard and soft synths, guitar pedals and endless reverbs.
