Tetragram is the new album by one of the finest domestic ambient creators, Simon Šerc. Although the album was created entirely with analog instruments, it is accompanied by technically refined field recordings of natural sounds, with assistance from Martina Testen. Their research work in the Biodukt group was highlighted by a Guardian journalist four years ago, and Tetragram is similarly striking. “The seven tracks on the album form a complex narrative, blending field recordings and ambient textures into soundscapes that evoke transformation and fragility,” describes the label Pharmafabrik. “From the hypnotic tranquility of Slumber, where coastal waves and ethereal tones lull the listener into a dreamlike state, to the celestial presence of Metatron and the poignant resonance of Polynya, reflecting the melting Arctic ice and its fleeting oases of life, the album captures moments of deep introspection.”
Tetragram je novi album enega najbolj kvalitetnih domačih ambientalnih ustvarjalcev, Simona Šerca. Album, sicer ustvarjen s povsem analognimi inštrumenti, spremljajo tehnično dovršeni terenski posnetki zvokov narave, pri čemer Šercu pomaga Martina Testen. Njuno raziskovalno delo v skupini Biodukt je pred štirimi leti poudaril novinar Guardiana, in tudi Tetragram je na podoben način presunljiv. “Sedem skladb na albumu je zapletena pripoved, ki združuje terenske posnetke in ambientalne teksture v zvočne pokrajine, ki spominjajo na preobrazbo in krhkost,” so album opisali pri založbi Pharmafabrik. “Od hipnotičnega miru skladbe Slumber, kjer obalni valovi in eterični toni zazibajo poslušalca v sanjsko stanje, do nebeške prisotnosti skladbe Metatron in presunljive resonance skladbe Polynya, ki odraža taljenje arktičnega ledu in njegove minljive oaze življenja, album zajema trenutke globoke introspekcije.”
