2020 - 17 [2020 Records 017 Promo]

Put out on the circuit via the artist run imprint 2020 Records on June 25th, 2k24 is "17", the - guess what... - seventeeth consecutive album release by 2020 since the labels inception in 2k20. Opening with the staggering 40 (!!!) minutes spanning tune "Die Eisprinzessin" we're entering a timeless stream of washed out meandering Ambient beauty defined by a subtle ebb and flow of droning synths and ever so slight harmonic changes whereas "Der Eisprinz" presents an offering of what could be described as nothing short of a bleak and mind-numbing Desolation Ambient whiteout before the final cut "Der Eiskönig" pairs this overall bleakness with comforting, slightly more harmonic warmth and subdued low-end rumblings despite feeling even more minimalist and stripped down than its predecessor. Defo a worthwhile addition to the collection of all fans and followers of the digital Ambient scene, this.
