Kuba - Broken Softly

Review by Alessandro Amato

Broken Softly is an album by the electronic music artist Kuba, released in 2014. The album features a mix of downtempo, ambient, and chillout tracks that are perfect for relaxation and meditation.

The album opens with the track "Suddenly," which sets the tone for the rest of the album with its dreamy synth pads and slow, pulsing beat. From there, the album moves through a range of moods and styles, from the delicate piano melodies of "By the Foot of Your Mountain" to the glitchy, experimental sounds of "The Most Gorgeous Sunset."

Throughout the album, Kuba shows a deft touch for blending organic and electronic sounds, with acoustic instruments like guitar, piano, and flute appearing alongside electronic beats and textures. This creates a rich and varied sonic palette that keeps the listener engaged from start to finish.

Summary by Alessandro Amato

Broken Softly is a beautifully crafted album that showcases Kuba's skills as a composer and producer. It's a must-listen for fans of ambient and downtempo music, and a great introduction to the genre for newcomers.
