Phoenecia

Brown Out

The Schematic Music Company

Phoenecia’s Brown Out is a heavily atmospheric album, dealing in very moody soundscapes with quite an experimental edge. The music is not readily accessible to either the dancer or the casual listener, but those willing to take on the auditory challenge may be justly rewarded. Sounds such as temple bells, pings, pongs, and various electro-lovelies have been programmed to create some fascinating – though difficult – music. Below the fray, however, dub-influenced bubbly bass tones add a whole other element of sound to the mix. Check out Brown Out if you’re interested in embarking on a headphone tone poem trip.
