There is something unfathomably tactile in nzworkdown’s opus. Water State makes no exception, delivering a quasi-synesthetic experience of H2O shifting from one phase to the other.

The American-born, Japan-based sound artist creates an intimate ambience, befogging you with an aerosol-like texture, leaving you to feel your own way amidst liquefied field recordings, synthetic swirls and all sorts of damp sounds and icy cracks.

Air, Ice, Vapor and Water coexist in an ever-morphing equilibrium: now cosy, sometimes unsettling, always intoxicatingly immersive.

パーフェクト

Apr 15, 2022

3曲をHoly Similaunと共有。Track 1に関し「もう少し音があると良いかも」との助言をもらい溶かしたピアノの音を加え、再び共有。「曲の終わりがやや唐突かも」との助言をもらいさらに曲の長さを3分強から4分強に伸ばし曲の終わりをフェードアウトさせたバージョンを共有。「パーフェクトだ」と言われる。
