Our Take

Parnt City Orchestra & Kaspar Mand's latest release, "As If A River Were Singing...", is a whirlwind of avant-garde sounds that will have you questioning what music even is.

From the opening track, "Ripples in Time," the listener is taken on a journey through a kaleidoscope of sonic textures that defy traditional boundaries. The combination of traditional orchestral elements with experimental electronic flourishes creates a truly unique listening experience that is both captivating and disorientating.

Tracks like "Whispers of the Past" and "Flowing Dreams" showcase the virtuosity of the musicians involved, with Mand's intricate guitar work weaving seamlessly through the orchestral arrangements. The result is a mesmerising blend of sound that is both soothing and unsettling in equal measure.

However, not every track on the album hits the mark. "Silent Echoes" feels a bit too meandering and lacks the cohesion that is present in the other songs. It's a minor misstep in an otherwise compelling collection of compositions.

Overall, "As If A River Were Singing..." is a daring and ambitious release that pushes the boundaries of what music can be. Parnt City Orchestra & Kaspar Mand have created a sonic landscape that is both challenging and rewarding for those willing to take the journey. Dive in and let the river of sound wash over you.
