Our Take
Our Take
A-SUN AMISSA's latest offering, "The Gatherer," is a sonic journey through layers of ambient textures and pulsating rhythms that will leave you wondering if you've accidentally stumbled into a transcendental meditation session. The album wastes no time in getting down to business with the opening track, "In Time We Awaken," which sets the tone for what's to come - a hypnotic blend of post-rock and drone that pulls you in like a tractor beam.
As you delve deeper into the album, tracks like "With Tears In Their Eyes" and "They Who Show The Way" reveal a complexity and depth that is both heady and exhilarating. The band's ability to create vast soundscapes that ebb and flow with a sense of purpose is truly commendable, creating an atmosphere that is at once haunting and comforting.
But it's not all serious business with A-SUN AMISSA - tracks like "Dance Of The Awakened" inject a sense of playfulness and fun into the mix, with pulsating rhythms and unexpected twists that keep you on your toes. Overall, "The Gatherer" is a triumph of creativity and musicianship, showcasing a band at the top of their game. So grab your headphones, close your eyes, and let A-SUN AMISSA take you on a journey you won't soon forget.

About the artist
A-Sun Amissa
A-Sun Amissa, the enigmatic musical project led by Richard Knox, is like a sonic mystery wrapped in a riddle, drenched in reverb. With a sound that oscillates between ambient drones, post-rock textures, and experimental jazz flourishes, A-Sun Amissa defies easy categorization. Knox, a seasoned musician with a penchant for pushing boundaries, has assembled a rotating cast of collaborators who bring their own unique talents to the table. From the haunting melodies of violinist Angela Chan to the thunderous rhythms of drummer Owen Pegg, each member of A-Sun Amissa adds their own distinct flavour to the mix. But what truly sets A-Sun Amissa apart is their ability to create music that is both ethereal and heavy, delicate and crushing. Tracks like "An Unintended Joy" and "Ceremony in the Stillness" showcase the band's mastery of dynamics, building tension and release with surgical precision. So if you're in the mood for music that will transport you to another dimension, look no further than A-Sun Amissa. Just be sure to bring your sense of adventure and your earplugs - you'll need them both.
