Psycho & Plastic - Placid House (2020)

With Placid House, techno duo Psycho & Plastic deliver an album of ambient music made in and for these unprecedented times. Its eight instrumental tracks artistically reflect our radically altered reality. In the calm surroundings of their homes and with plenty of time on their hands, the duo turned inward making Placid House. Forced to collaborate remotely, yet listening closely to one another and to their inner voices, they developed a gentle, poetic, and beatless musical expression. The resulting album captures the essence of our trying times and turns it into sonic relief.

Placid House transforms the paranoia and ubiquitous dread of the current crisis and offers listeners a chance to infuse their quarantine burdened interiors with a fresh breeze of ambient sounds. The album creates a sonic safes pace for contemplation, relaxation, or daydreaming.
