MARJA AHTI レコード& CD

Review: Accomplished Swedish-Finnish artist Marja Ahti arrives on Black Truffle with an extended journey into her electro-acoustic practice. As you might expect from a release on Oren Ambarchi's label, there's an emphasis on sustained tonal immersion, but Ahti is equally prepared to make decisive cuts and shifts in direction when the moment calls for it. At times surrounded by environmental static, elsewhere drawing us close to consider a specifically sculpted tone, Tender Membranes is a captivating invitation to pause and truly listen, and makes the task surprisingly approachable through the compelling nature of the sounds contained within.
