Ein neues Ambient Projekt auf ALLUVIAL, dem Label aus Minneapolis, welches uns schon einige sehr feine atmosphärische Veröffentlichungen beschert hat. TIDAL bietet ultra-sensiblen, meditativen Ambient-Space, beeinflußt von östlicher Philosophie und Religion. Geschickt werden allmählich repititive Sounds in die Stücke eingewoben, die dadurch wenig statisch wirken..
“This is a project of New York composer David Brownstead. This is his first release as "Tidal" aside from a privately released cassette from a few years ago. The concept behind these recordings are "The Four Rivers" as defined by Japanese author, playwright and cultural icon Yukio Mishima. These rivers are the converging philosophies that Mishima chose to live by and illustrated so well in his considerable body of work. These recordings present moods- sonic meditations, to accompany the ideas present in Mishima's writing. David tends to use older, analogue equipment to record with. Here, he loops dark, gentle, ambient drones that are repetitive and quietly reflective. This is David's effort to explore the complicated, strained life of the author and mirrors a part of his own personality and intense interest in Eastern Philosophy and Arts.”
