Arden [LP]

Arden creates sensual, spheric sound structures. With her instrument the harp, her ethereal vocals and minimalistic electronic sounds she explores a musical world between chamber pop, neoclassical music and ambient soundscapes. She uses loops, layers, works the harp with mallets, modifies it with paper, chains and all kinds of mufflers and spans a sky of elysian choirs above it. The result is a sound experience that feels like a gentle embrace - with maturity to the overall sound that manages to show dare without having to say too much. Sophisticated but still genuine and uncomplicated somehow.
