At
first glance, you see this release from Orphax and how it is four songs and
each one is titled “Undone 1”, “Undone 2”, etc. with the album title being “Undone”
and you might not think that it’s very clever, but you know what? This is still leaps and bounds above any
self-titled album ever released in terms of title creativity.
The
songs you find here within are quiet and ambient. They are peaceful and you could very much
meditate to them even. This adjective either gets tossed around too
much or not enough, but these songs are definitely serene.
They
remind me of the sound of putting your ear up to a seashell and hearing what is
said to be the ocean. I highly doubt
Orphax recorded inside of a seashell though, so how do you capture that
sound? How do you replicate that in this
manner? It baffles and amazes me at the
same time.
There
are whooshes and whirrs before the fades in and out come on, like someone is
messing the speaker setting on a stereo (level, front/back, left/right,
whatever) and the last song does end up being really quiet.
Overall
these are just good songs to listen when you want a relaxing day on the beach
state of mind but cannot get there.
Better yet, take these songs with you and listen to them on the beach
for double the bliss.
