Svart1 are a solo project from Italy that has been featured before in this zine and on this recording plays a mixture of dark ambient, electro, experimental, industrial, power electronics and noise and this is a review of his 2021 album "Circondati dai Petali da soli moriamo (Surrounded By Petals We Perish In Solitude)" which was released by Mask Of The Slave.
Dark soundscapes start off the album while also bringing in a very avant garde orientated atmosphere. At times the music gets very experimental sounding along with the synths also bringing in elements of dark ambient onto the album as well as adding in a decent amount of programmed beats.
Most of the tracks are also instrumentals while field recordings can also be heard quite a bit throughout the recording. One track also adds in a brief use of Gregorian chants along with all of the songs also sounding very different from each other as well as some operatic choirs and angelic voices also being added into some parts of the album.
Some tracks also add in a small amount of power electronics and noises along with some electronic sounds also being added in certain sections of the album as well as a couple of song also adding in some underground industrial touches. At times the synths also add in a small amount of cinematic sounding drones, some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length and the production also sounds very dark.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Svart1 and if you are a fan of dark ambient, elecro, experimental, industrial, noise and power electronics, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "#1" "#4" "#7" and "Red Sector A". 8 out of 10.
