Glass Garden by Memorybell
Created during the pandemic lockdown and inspired by the science fiction narratives of 'The Stars My Destination' and 'Silent Running', 'Glass Garden' confronts the ache of loneliness and isolation with a healthy dose of hope. True to the album’s title, the sound palette is organic, reflective and beautiful, as sustained tones bloom into clear space. Bookended by shorter tracks ‘Limbic Drift’ and ‘Here’, the album stretches out on the 17-minute ‘Distant Fire’ and the 11-minute ‘Broken Petals’. Generous in scope and open-hearted in timbre, 'Glass Garden' zeroes in on intimate instrumental tones and expands them into environments to inhabit and explore.
