Following up the release of the emulsified “Dulcet” single, Universe of Sounds dives beneath yet another layer of mind-scintillating music with the release of the dual sided “Astrophilia”.
With razor-sharp focus on the interplay of melody, harmony, and tonality, the two companion tracks feel like parallel pathways through the same journey; shuffled drum lines and mothballed foley slices roll beneath supple sine chords and ambient textural movement, with each composition building on minor tension and resounding cadence.
It’s a warm, stereophonic view into the ongoing machinations within the Universe of Sounds catalog, and betrays a potent understanding of the intersection between musicianship and a full spectrum sonic palette.
