Electrypnose - Subliminal Melancholies

[Sawfly]

It continues to amaze me.

Yeah, me too. This certainly is an album to enjoy for a long time. It just doesn't grow old!

I like this album a lot. i dont find this particularly melancholic but like rah said its hypnotising music ..

 

great for deep sleeping sessions

 

its pure dark ambient and thats what i love about it

I dunno .. i woke up in a cold sweat while listening to this album late at night .. the first half isnt that dark , but by the time i got to new wave and this is the beginning i began to shiver and started imagining strange creatures and ghosts .

 

They might not appear really dark on the surface but they are subliminally haunting .. especially with that Idm/glitch touch to it.

 

try this on lsd you'll know

[Sawfly]

Well, it might have a dark side to it, but it most certainly isn't dark ambient in true sense of term

[Forest Dreams]

This is one of those albums that you will keep hearing even after years.. great quality chill.

I thought about this a lot and maybe you're right. Maybe the album took the shape of my mood that night.

 

Whats really outstanding about the album is that it brings out various emotions and shades within a track at times.

Calling it dark ambient actually wouldnt do justice to it. .

Like track 7 for example.

beautiful

While a very good album, I like it a lot. I think it is pretty poorly named as I don't find many of the tracks particularly melancholic. It's nice and all but just not that melancholic

[Snapinho]

That's because it's subliminally melancholic...

[AkumaSama]

I like this album very much. Not on first listen but it got better

[Gnome]

It continues to amaze me.

It still does.

[Jon Cocco]

My friends all like this album.

 

I love it.

 

This is one of the best downtempo albums out there.

[mephistopheles]

great album....although not one of my all time favourite chill out albums...(at this moment of writing...)

 

track 3 is one of my favourites......

 

great buy though......

Submarine, Cordial Family, Entre Palmeras, and This Is The Beginning are great. I find Mountain Landscape less interesting than the others. Both Neverending Story are Tripad wonderful.

 

Listen how (in Tripad) the piano is purposefully off key; the artist creatively makes it fit by adding in sounds individually over each note, thus distorting intentional errors with tedious tweaks to accommodate innovation and emphasis its grip. I think most people missed some of the most (impressive on a technical level) details on this album. Electrypnose's editing, mixing, and sound programming is impressive.

 

Rozococie has grown on me, with its chilled, organic background and instruments. It's a pleasant, contemplative track that nicely separates the more dynamic, intricately designed numbers.

 

 

I just opened a review thread in the 2010 section (below) for the downbeat/tempo "Sweet Sadness" follow up to Subliminal Melancholies. Both are great.

I just love Tripad! What an amazing ambient track... gives me such unadulterated joy when its finally built and exploding! Love it!

 

Excellent track i agree, sublime and man very entrancing, cool
