From the opening moments of “Pond Water (Typha),” a frenetic sound storm overwhelms. Dawning visions spill through the textural drones and push thoughts inward. We find ourselves trying to shut down our reactions to the incandescent sonic layers because Cyparissus frames this music in a brittle shell. The unrelenting emotion of “Pond Water (Typha)” will […]

Through a series of ambient soundscapes, emotional journeys unfold, and liminal spaces become expressive, intricate worlds.
