[ambient] (2024) Olivier Cong - Tropical Church [FLAC] [DarkAngie]

Olivier Cong – Tropical Church (2024) Review: It quite often happens that artists working within often connected genres of ambient, post-rock, and/or modern classical genres end up doing works for film and theatre. In most cases, it is the quality and high level of their work that is attractive to filmmakers and theatre producers. In that respect, Hong Kong composer Olivier Cong is no exception, as his latest effort Tropical Church amply shows. Here, Cong took a cue from the way he perceives the humid nights of the rainy season. As he explains, “I was waiting for the bus to arrive at the stop when the rain started pouring. I quickly escaped into a chapel nearby, and that’s where the idea of this album came to be. Inside the chapel, I was reminded of the scent of Mauritius, where my father was from, and the pillars of dampened woods mixed with the ritualistic frankincense”. Such a concept can easily go wrong, and turn the resulting music into an indiscernible mush, but Cong’s minimalist approach and attention to delicate details carry him lightly through the 13 compositions here. He is able to create the exact aural images that are so suitable for both film and theatre. Excellent mood music, rain or shine, day or night, in the tropics, or elsewhere. — echoesanddust.com Track List: 01 - I am afraid of 02 - solace 03 - They don’t sleep on the beach anymore 04 - moon dance 05 - WIND EATER 06 - burning 07 - solitude study 08 - when the labour is for love 09 - dok 10 - Solid sun 11 - 闔家平安 12 - A saint about to fall 13 - prayer of mine Media Report: Genre: ambient Origin: Hong Kong Format: FLAC Format/Info: Free Lossless Audio Codec Bit rate mode: Variable Channel(s): 2 channels Sampling rate: 44.1 KHz Bit depth: 16 bits Compression mode: Lossless Writing library: libFLAC 1.2.1 (UTC 2007-09-17) Note: If you like the music, support the artist
