symetrk lovely, meditative, calm but not comatose, soothing but not saccharine, minimalist but never bland. Really nice to sink into and really explore a limited palette of colors and textures like this. I look forward to getting creative with the plug-in as well! Favorite track: tea.

Editions Vaché It's a great exercise to see what a piece of software ( in this case, the 'small winters' plug-in ) .... It shows how something so readily available to everyone can shine in the hands of a master....ss/am Favorite track: elm.

The Tonearm “Long Winter” treats the glockenspiel with percolating layers of static-tinged stereo-enhanced repetition. The result is beautiful; the hard attack of the ‘spiel is softened by reversed effects, low-end ghost notes, and a healthy dollop of artificial tape hiss. An ARP 2600 eventually joins in with hints of a glimmering, subdued melody. | my full review → 8sided.blog/colorfully-aligned/ Favorite track: Long Winter.

Ravenwell Dungeon Synth? Is that a genre? Well whatever you call it, I dig it.
So much like a lost late 70s early 80s synth album. Love it.
Just wish the whole album was more like 36-40 minutes long, Still very awesome. So creepy cool. Favorite track: Stone Of The Lord.

Mandolintower Umbria is a master of dense, atmospheric instrumentation. Homecomer is, true to form, whimsical and layered. It's easy to get lost in this album. Favorite track: Sealed Tower of the Withering Monarch.

Nocturnal Egg (Jordan) J'ai dit qu'Umbría ressemblait aux Moires mais ma comparaison était inexacte : c'est plutôt un tisserand qui entremêle les fils, les cachant pour les faire ressortir au moment opportun comme dans les grandes tapisseries médiévales. Ainsi, Homecomer donne suite à Farwalker et l'exploratrice des confins rentre chez elle. Le dungeon synth est héroïque tout en gardant une dimension sylvestre entraînante. Avec ses instruments à corde, Umbría joue avec les émotions — est-il donc un marionnettiste ? Favorite track: The Unhealing Wound.

Artwood cant get enough of Umbria Favorite track: The Fog Cathedral.
