Post Description

Folk, traditional, electronic, classic. Kijk even neer de YouTube link, dan wordt alles duidelijk. 

Harp and electronica duo FitkinWall captivate throughout their new album, UIST. 
The project of composer Graham Fitkin and Scottish harpist Ruth Wall impress with a ravishing arsenal of soundscapes, weaving elements of folk and new-classical with electronic and ambient pursuits. The hypnotic, meditative structures within feel at times reminiscent of minimalist classical-leaning works, a la Philip Glass and Steve Reich. FitkinWall show strongly throughout UIST, which is based on old Gaelic songs and Highland tunes.

The album envelops with strongly atmospheric strengths, from start to finish. “I HO RO” is a meditative stunner, unveiling ample mystique in its trickling harps and serenely creeping layers. “Geal Og” ensues with a gentle, spacey intrigue that swells gradually amidst more beautiful harp entrancement. “Red Red Rose” is further exemplary of backing textural effervescence, and its cohesively gripping interplay with the harps. In the wholly vibrant spectrum, “Seventeen Come Sunday” bursts with glistening emotion — enthralling with its expressive outpouring and brisker pace. UIST consistently compels in its mixture of inviting, calm soundscapes and unfolding emotion.
