Tom Richards Alex Thomas - Vertical Form

Review by Razvan Gliga

Tom Richards and Alex Thomas have come together to create the mesmerizing album "Vertical Form". The duo has used their talents to create a soundscape that is both unique and captivating. The album is a perfect blend of ambient and experimental music that takes the listener on a journey of self-discovery.

The opening track "Spectral Leisure" sets the tone for the album with its hauntingly beautiful melody that is both calming and eerie at the same time. The use of synths and percussion throughout the album is perfectly balanced, creating a sense of tension and release that keeps the listener engaged.

The album also features some standout tracks such as "Aetheric Currents" and "Interlocked". These tracks showcase the duo's ability to create a soundscape that is both complex and accessible. The use of repetitive patterns and gradual changes in tone and mood make these tracks stand out from the rest.
