Sonologyst are a solo project from Italy that plays a mixture of dark ambient, drone, experimental and isolationist and this is a review of his 2025 album "Planeterium" which was released by Cold Spring.
Spoken word samples and drones start off the album while the music also gets very experimental sounding at times. When synths are utilized they also bring in elements of dark ambient along with the music also capturing an isolationist atmosphere and a lot of the tracks also stick to an instrumental direction.
A lot of the music also sounds very improvised while each track also sounds very different from each other. A couple of the songs are also very long and epic in length along with some distorted soundscapes also being utilized briefly as the album progresses as well as the tracks also bringing in a very sci-fi orientated dimension and field recordings are added on the bonus track which is almost an hour in length.
Sonologyst plays a musical style that takes dark ambient, drone, experimental, field recordings and isolationist and mixes them together to create a sound of his own. The production sounds very dark and lo-fi while the song themes focus on NASA samples of radio waves, planets, solar winds and the cosmic beyond.
In my opinion Sonologyst is a very great sounding mixture of dark ambient, drone, experimental and isolationist and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this solo project. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Blue Neptune" "Plutonian Transmissions" "Microphones On Mars" and "Earth Magnetic Waves". 8 out of 10.
