Jamick: Seasons

Electronic Gebrauchsmusik?

A very sweet and original album, conveying the alternating ambiences for the four seasons of love in a descriptive and at the same time pleasantly abstract and figurative way.

I don't know if the term Gebrauchsmusik can actually be applied here (since the instruments used are virtual), or whether it does even define the style and character of this work. But this is music that manages to "depict" the innate contrasts and evolving moods of each emotionally charged season, creating vivid, intriguing imagery.

One of the first, and still one of the most interesting discoveries I made on Jamendo.

NOTE: This album is no longer available on Jamendo, but may still be freely downloadable from The Jamendo Albums Collection @ Archive.org.
