Our Take

NEAR THE PARENTHESIS's latest album, "Helical," is a sonic journey through the depths of electronic ambiance. With layers upon layers of intricate soundscapes, this album is a mesmerizing experience that transports listeners to a different dimension.

From the opening track, "Spiral Staircase," to the closing notes of "Twilight Whispers," NEAR THE PARENTHESIS takes us on a wild ride filled with unexpected twists and turns. Each track is like a piece of a puzzle, fitting perfectly into the bigger picture of the album as a whole.

The production on "Helical" is top-notch, with every sound meticulously crafted to create a cohesive and immersive listening experience. The textures are rich and complex, with subtle nuances that reveal themselves upon each subsequent listen.

But what truly sets this album apart is NEAR THE PARENTHESIS's ability to create emotive compositions that resonate with the listener on a deep level. Tracks like "Moonlit Walls" and "Echoes of Never" tug at the heartstrings, while others, like "Pulse Pause Repeat," get the feet tapping and the head nodding.

In conclusion, "Helical" is a must-listen for fans of electronic music. NEAR THE PARENTHESIS has once again proven why he is a force to be reckoned with in the industry. So grab your headphones, sit back, and let the music take you on a journey unlike any other. Trust us, you won't regret it.
