Desert Moth by Nuage, Carbon Mass
With their first collaboration, ‘Rain’, reaching over 600,000 streams in just under a year, Armenian-based electronic producer Nuage and Canadian indie-electronic duo Carbon Mass team up for round two: Desert Moth.
‘Desert Moth’ started with a guitar riff. Carbon Mass wanted to write something hypnotically simple and repetitive with an “empty desert mood”. 70’s spaghetti western meets chill-out electronica as reverberated slide guitar is juxtaposed against warm pads and knocking percussion. Looping vocal chops slip in and out of focus like a mirage in the distance. “Don't know why feeling numb feels more life-like”, vocalist Tim Claridge croons, as the hypnotic repetition of the track lulls you into a trance.

The winters in Dmitry Kuzmin’s home city are to be endured rather than enjoyed. But like his musical counterparts across the Baltic in Scandinavia, it’s given Kuzmin (aka Nuage) the perfect excuse to just stay inside, nerd out and make music. There’s a warmth and cosiness to his productions – a mix of neo-classical ambience, sultry future 2-step and feather-light electronica.
