From Bristol based multi-instrumentalist, composer, and producer Arulei comes the exceptionally immersive dual releases ‘Perspective’. The genre-defying opulently produced two part record comprised of ‘Past Time’ and ‘Perspective’ sees Arulei explore the violin as the central element, guiding a larger electronic ensemble through its morose and melancholic melody. The two tracks on the release serve as equal and opposed entities, each offering a different perspective and a unique approach to the topic at hand. Each tune draws inspiration from how we interact with and are bounded by time itself.
‘Past Time’ is far more loaded, fuelled with a pulsating and infectious energy that drives you. ‘Perspective’ is much more mellow, using a piano backing and an even more melancholic violin section to craft something truly introspective and meditative. Somehow, the duality of the record therefore makes Perspective a release that would be equally engaging if you needed to zone out in your own bedroom or rave late at night in a club.
Immaculate.
