Endurance - Cloud, Castle, Lake

Immense distances across space and time. So much detail, the consciousness begins to blur both peaks and valleys. This results in a droning conglomeration of fantastic features. The elements constructing this aural landscape have been sleekly converged, like disappearing ripples across water surfaces. The sound created, a cohesive force of sonic beauty, holding all unheard energy in comprehensible order.

Four tracks across forty minutes of sound. Endurance (Joshua Stefane), using creative spacial imagery with ties to the writings of Vladimir Nabokov's short story, Cloud, Castle, Lake. Three pristine features, each conveying their own magnitude of elements. Synthesized together and transitioning to a velvety colossal scope. The idea of individual aspects incorporating into complete ambient landscapes touches on all music of this genre. For Cloud, Castle, Lake, infinitely small eddies and vortexes, all part of the dense flow, each existing in the current they are generated from. Single moments uniquely distinct, like individual snow flakes settling together to cover the countryside. Endurance has taken these vastly detailed instances and created a sonic picture of desired obscurity.

Cloud, Castle, Lake is released on the German label Cosmic Winnetou. In an edition of seventy copies, these were quickly sold out. You can listen to the complete composition on Endurance's bandcamp page. The beautiful artwork was created by Adrianna Snochowska and is available. This composition has not surfaced for sale elsewhere, maybe someone knows a source? There is a new Endurance cassette on Tymbal Tapes with copies currently available. Celestial Governors will be described on Lost in the Sea of Sound in the short future.
