This episode features three artists from the Mahorka netlabel: Encased in Amber, Virtually J, and V.
Encased in Amber’s album, Parallel Worlds, is a real treat! Beautiful timbres, excellent performances, and a great melodic sense.
Encased in Amber says about themselves:
The music of Encased in Amber tells it’s stories
through an intricate mesh of melodies and texture.
Described as downtempo, ambient, and dreamy, Encased
in Amber puts forth the concept that each time a piece
of music is written it crystallizes what was felt and
processed in that moment of time, like a fossil caught
in amber.
What I can say is that it’s a great premiere album, and the artist assures me that there’ll be another release later this year.
It’s only a half-hour long, so we’ve got some unapologetic techno from Virtually J’s Autocracy Mage and some cool-down tracks from V’s 23.56.04 to fill out the rest of the podcast.
As always, I’ve linked to the Bandcamp pages for these albums; they’re pay-what-you-like, so support the artists to whatever extent you can.
Enjoy!
