Storm Rites

female vocals electric ambient experimental electronica downtempo Slow-burning downtempo electronica with female vocals; deep raspy lead riding a roomy swung kick and tactile bass. Opens with distant world percussion storm FX and a distorted guitar motif then folds in Indian-inspired and Gregorian-style chants as layered textures. Mid-song a moody New Age pad swell and subtle church-organ colors create religious overtones while breathy French-like whispers circle the stereo field. Long hypnotic outro evolves into bagpipe and tom-driven folk cadence chants and atmospherics rising in a ritualistic crescendo before dissolving into reverb.
