Swoop and Cross - Stories of Disintegration - Milky Clear LP

The first release of 2018 from the Time Released Sound label is this pastoral and nostalgic beauty from Swoop And Cross, aka London based Portuguese composer/musician, Ruben Vale. Like a soundtrack to a melancholic and romantic silent film from long past, the tracks on Stories Of Disintegration wind their way into your subconscious, softly easing you into a state of memory and longing. As though you are watching your life on rewind…and waiting to hear what happens in the music. The languid and dreamy piano motifs are counterbalanced by more rhythmic electronic flourishes, and together they form this very contemplative and set of sounds.
