5 stars Sil Muir is a contemporary minimalism droning project involving Andrea Ferraris and Andrea Marutti. The subterranean, circular abstracted dronescapes are covered by fragile-ephemeral and melancholic echoing guitar sounds. The first piece is an ecstatic journey of sounds based on Marutti's slow moving drone rituals and covered by introspective, delicate guitar echoing notes from Andrea Ferraris. The Spring That Never Comes is an outer space, meditative piece growing into real isolation and bleak atmospheres. Light at is another spacious, intimate and sacred drone-like electronic theme. It starts with a glacial, arctic soundscape in the distance that becomes magnified by a cascade of serene, warm guitar chords. Completely beautiful and plastically vibrant. An holy nocturnal ceremony. It sometimes reminds me Peter Wright's droning "abyssal" guitars but less massive and less heavy with much more emphasis on intimate and mytho-poetical themes. We Don't Need Time, We're Already in Eternity is a twenty minute subliminal droning electronic sphere that slowly and delicately emerging from a blackened abstract world. I'm impatient to discover more sound materials from this fantastic new duo. A pinnacle of "dronemusik".
