FAR, by Ben Frost

FAR

by Ben Frost

supported by

Nuno Miranda Ribeiro FAR feels like a voyage into the texture of solitude. Like the feel of self resonating. And, like other pieces of work by Ben Frost, it feels like he is making the feeling, the concept, whatever he went after when creating these sounds, tangible, tactile, concrete. As if music was the art of bringing thought and emotion into life, blood and flesh. He makes music scratch and pinch and resonate our body, and as we feel it and it sinks in, we make it human and intangible again. Favorite track: In Flesh And Blood.
