Ulvestad are a solo project from Sweden that plays an ethereal mixture of dark ambient and drone and this is a review of his 2020 album "Fall" which was released on november 27th by Cyclic Law.
Field recordings start off the album while also being calm for a moment before introducing dark ambient style synths onto the recording. The songs also bring in a great amount of atmospheric sounding drones along with the music also adding in some nature sounds at times and most of the tracks are long and epic in length.
All of the songs also have a very different sound to them while also adding in a very ethereal sounding atmosphere into some part of the recording. At times the music also gets very dark and violent sounding along with one track also adding in a small amount of background voices as well as most of the music also being instrumental.
Ulvestad plays a musical style that takes dark ambient, drone and ethereal and mixes them together to create a sound of his own. The production sounds very dark while the song themes focus on contemporary texts of death and the moments gone to Norse ideas gone to youth.
In my opinion Ulvestad are a very great sounding ethereal mixture of dark ambient and drone and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this solo project. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "PAN" and "Aisling". 8 out of 10.
