Hive Mind Records are thrilled to announce The Vertical Luminous, an immersive new album from F.Ampism that invites listeners into a singular sound-world of quietly ecstatic wonder.
A dayglo collection of synth experiments, found sounds and musique concrète sound collage, The Vertical Luminous blurs all lines between the organic and the electronic, each piece shimmers with a sense of wide-eyed curiosity and lightness, tying the album together into a bubbling, serene gift to the world.
Listening to The Vertical Luminous feels a little like tuning in to the secret noises of the microscopic world, the hum and flutter of atoms, molecules, and micro-organisms as they dance just beyond the limits of our perception.
