Crackle and distortion like an old record sets the context for Maff Stenning's The North Sea Intimate. Allowing a couple minutes to introduce the dominant harmonies, it will take six minutes to reach the apex and four minutes to build back down. Maff's style is nostalgic of something precursory of electronic music.
Using a mixture of analog synthesizers and sampling with mainly melodic layers to keep rhythm, the two works feel like an archive of folk music presented as ambient. The second piece follows with similar sound design but is more muted and buried in reverb. Percussive rumbles swell and pop like unraveled low-end frequencies. This is the second release on Pinecone Moonshine in seven years to depart from Drum and Bass, 170bpm music.

Thanks,

A Pinecone Moonshine release = instant gwarness

I've had these tracks for many moons, but i just bought the new macc masters -

great ambient hombrés

Ah, cool

I need to get these checked out

Listening now...the first track is awesome. Reminds me of Eluvium in the representation of soundwaves as waves in the drones character. Enough small details to keep it all interesting beyond surface texxture. This is right upthere with Maff's (can't remember name ) PlainAudio productions (that had drums), but obviously I like these more, as they don't have drums.

The B side on this record is my fave - fantastic early-ambilectro
