Biography

Brooding ambient washes and thoughtful movement denotes the work of Mountains, especially their later works. Can be compared without shame with Stars of the Lid, though without quite the level of somnolence.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good, October 3, 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Choral (MP3 Download)
There are only 6 tracks on this album, but its plenty of music.

Mountains - 'Choral' is ambient/instrumental, but it is unusual because it is a very warm album. Its primarily acoustic, and unlike most ambient albums it doesn't sound lonely and distant. It reminds me of childhood and the simple fascination that accompanies it. The album is not stressed, and is content to meander through various soundscapes and touch upon different emotional resonances.

I like all of the songs about equally, but 'Telescope' is the one that I really made a connection with.


Technically, the genre is ambient, but this album should be placed somewhere near Animal Collective, and the other related artists that don't have a set system/agenda. I wish somebody would come up with a name for this type of music as Indie isn't a very descriptive or discerning adjective

....Have fun blissing out....

----------
If you're looking for some cold, emotionally distant ambient, check out Harmony in Ultraviolet or Glider (I've had 'Glider' for 2 weeks, and I highly recommend it if you're into that stuff)
