Our Take

BING & RUTH's latest offering, City Lake, is a mesmerising sonic journey through the depths of experimental ambient music. The album invites listeners to lose themselves in a dream-like state, as each track unfolds with intricate layers of piano, synth, and ethereal textures.

From the opening notes of "BING & RUTH", the listener is transported to a peaceful oasis, where time seems to stand still. The delicate piano melodies ebb and flow like gentle waves, while the electronic elements add a modern twist to the classical sound.

Tracks like "Lake of Memory" showcase the band's ability to create a sense of nostalgia and longing, with haunting melodies that linger in the mind long after the music has ended. The use of silence and space in tracks like "City Lake" create a sense of anticipation, as each note hangs in the air before fading into the next.

Overall, City Lake is a triumph of musical experimentation and innovation. BING & RUTH have once again proven themselves to be masters of their craft, creating a stunningly beautiful and otherworldly album that will transport listeners to a realm of pure musical bliss. If you're a fan of ambient music that pushes boundaries and challenges the status quo, then City Lake is a must-listen.
