Obscure Clarity by Sebastien Guerive
Sébastien Guérive's new album "Obscure Clarity" blends electronic acoustics, sonic textures and more intimate piano felt moments in the spirit of neoclassical writing.
Chorales and onomatopoeic voices run through the album, creating a universal dialogue with the listener. At times akin to religious music writing, it is the spiritual dimension that is important in this album, this sense of elevation in contrast with darker, rougher soundscapes and textures.
There are musical climbs in the spirit of progressive rock, given by the power and thickness of the electronic sounds and the breadth of the orchestration of the acoustic instruments. With Obscure Clarity, Sébastien Guérive continues to compose the soundtrack for a film about the essential role of light in the development of life.
