Vehjora - Minerals (2020)

Drone-ambient album Minerals from Russian musician Vehjora was released on label Simphonic Silence Inside at number 157. The new album by Vlad Sirosh includes 6 compositions. These are guitar improvisations that were recorded by the musician in the period from 2014 to 2016. According to the author, the concept of the album was to fine-tune, capture the sensations and resonances between music, improvisation and photography of a mineral. If during the sessions the music resonated with the same fossil in the photo, the author chose this mineral for the name of the composition. Vlad." :..Music match titles fairly static and staid, but it definitely is movement. In general, this is a very chthonic drone-ambient music, but in some places you can hear the wind, water and other natural phenomena..." In fact, Minerals offers the listener variations on the theme as could "sound": Obsidian, Olivenite, Calcite, Quartz, Agate and Fluorite through the prism of creativity from Vehjora.
