Open Ground by Haárps
“Open Ground” is a concious attempt to reconcile the aggressive environment with fragile & vulnerable spirit of a human nature. Speaking of tags, our new project is kinda misalliance kid of cybergrime fuzz’n’drones with new wave aesthetics.
It’s a perfect reflection of these hard times we’ve been passing through the last couple of years. Either global, local or personal. The fear of war, solitude, disintegration & isolation along with our open hearts to the world. Withstanding the madness we’re surrounded by. Thus it couldn’t be that much listener friendly stuff as before.
We deeply appreciate the help & support for this project from our friends & fans from all around the world.
