MODERN OBSCURE MUSIC
On Pedro Vian's second album, the now Amsterdam-based artist opens up a new sonic chapter of his life, running through depths of emotions and feelings, traversing moments of euphoria, fury, serenity, hope and love.
Recorded between 2014 and 2018, the LP opens with a melodic flourish, drops down through mournful vocal driven pieces and lands on fast moving synths across a set of 12 deeply personal tracks.
A follow up to Vian's 2016 acclaimed debut album "Beautiful Things You Left Us For Memories - this sophomore LP shows the breadth and maturity of Vian's sound, falling in between the cracks of downtempo electronica, ambient and post rock.
Pedro discloses: "I have tried to be sincere, transparent and pure. During the recording process I have avoided artificiality.
I do not like the overproduction of music. I like to feel the naturalness and the essence of the beat of the instruments.
I like to look inside until I find something real with which to communicate". "
