CECILIA and Ali Ayrik come together as The Discretes, a project that blurs the boundaries between ambient, experimental electronics, field recordings and poetic expression. Marking the duo's debut with the forthcoming IN SORE BLESS, the pair channel their varied artistic backgrounds into immersive compositions that feel intimate and unsettling.
Opening the record, Deep Noon immediately establishes its sonic identity. Slow-burning and entrancing, the track unfolds through spectral textures, hushed electronics and an almost ceremonial sense of tension. Rather than building towards a conventional climax, it creates an eerie, hypnotic atmosphere where ambient passages and subtle noise coexist.
IN SORE BLESS promises a journey through dark, meditative terrain, with The Discretes embracing ambiguity and emotional weight over easy resolution.
The Discretes comment: ""We find inspiration in the entropy of life. Sometimes we celebrate it and at other times we resist it. Art and music act like a bandpass filter, cut out the sound and fury and focus your attention on what moves you.”
