Mono

US first press 2023.
One of Mono’s most restrained and emotionally direct works. Written as a documentary soundtrack so everything is about mood, patience and weight rather than big dramatic payoff. Sparse melodies, slow moving arrangements and a real sense of dignity running through it. Heavy subject matter handled with care and quiet power. This one sits with you rather than washing over you. Deep listening. Class. FFO Labradford, Stars of the Lid, Explosions In The Sky ambient moments, Ryuichi Sakamoto soundtrack work, Hammock
