Sun Swept - Germinations (2024) [Hi-Res]

Germinations, the debut album from Colorado musician Sun Swept, is pastoral, heady music that travels through layers of sparkling ethereal flutes and beds of droning synths. Different textures from spacious reverb to granular flecks are extracted from the flute through electronic processing. Each composition is based on a loose structure for improvisation and is different each time when performed live. Recordings were all captured at home. The music on Germinations is serene but with an experimental and even noisy edge at times. Some pieces are joyful and lively and others are slow and contemplative. The album is inspired by the Rocky Mountains, alpine lakes, clouds, wind, breath, and classic new age flute tapes.
