Panoptique Electrical - For Years [Sound In Silence 114]

Once again put out on the circuit via Sound In Silence is "For Years", the latest, June 19th, 2k24 released ten track album by Jason Sweeney a.k.a. Panoptique Electrical and his fifth longplayer for the label under this specific musical moniker. Still located and based in Kaurna Country in South Australia Sweeney starts his new, roughly 40 minutes spanning musical journey with the washed out and shimmering aesthetics of "For Oceans" which are backed by deep tectonic rumblings followed by the calm and comforting Ambient rivers of "For Sleep" whereas "For Em" provides some subtle, yet surely angelic overtones and a shimmering silver lining of hope at the horizon. "For Piano" interestingly is more reminiscent of tender Ambient textures garnished with softly plucked guitar strings than of actual Piano Ambient whilst "For Stillness" seems to be based on brooding, ever morphing bass drones closing in before beauteous echoes of fragile Ambient structures provide a bit of a relieving contrast and "For Ruins" waves goodbye with a most beautiful sequence of slowly cascading Piano Ambient tones just to name a few. As intimate and closeup as an Ambient album can get.
