distillation by storyinsoil

Hybrid of ambient, kosmiche, and IDM - rippling synth tracks that conjure galaxies. - Bandcamp

Review in Other People's Music:
Engaging and spacy hybrid of ambient, kosmische and IDM. Embracing the languid pulse of classic kosmische, these tracks stay busy enough to reference IDM’s restless fidgets while still existing in something of the timeless, expansive state of the best ambient.

distillation

To refine, remove
Entropic metamorphosis.

Chaos mixed in glass
Solution like mud swirls clockwise,
Shifting atoms collide.
Structure forms.
Phase changes codify
Steam rises like rain from summer pavement
Separate from impurities.
Droplets condense, dripping in a vase
To collect and salve.

My tools cry for me,
And I weep for them.
