The title of Shapesift’s first single via The Rust Music mirrors its enchanting atmosphere, as “Myrrhidiance” depicts a strange and alluring world all its own. In this dreamscape the producer plies the intersection of digital sound and organic motif. Aquatic flourishes and crystalline chimes evoke morning dew. Delightfully subtle pads act as morning fog, blowing softly back and forth across the stereo spread as if steered by the wind. Strong percussion patterns offer structure and help to pin down the otherwise ethereal arrangement, while a sharp but delicate bass synthesizer weaves through the soundscape, casting spells.
