Rain-cloud


Rain-cloud (Dom Dixon aka talkingmakesnosense and Alec Cheer) traffics in a tranquil electro-acoustic style where lulling environmental soundscapes are faintly discoloured by mechanical rhythms, shudders, static, and the. Acoustic and, to a lesser degree, electric guitars occupy the front-line with droning streams of electronic noise softly resounding in the distance. The group name is well-chosen as it connects Rain-cloud to the natural landscape but, more importantly, its music does too. The duo's peaceful material evocatively conjures images of vast countryside panoramas and early-morning, seaside tranquility, the music's meditative character conveyed by titles like I Sit Here all Day and Keeping a Low Profile. Cloud Surprise, for example, doesn't announce the sudden onset of a violent storm but instead suggests a slow, stately drift of cumulous clouds across an immense blue sky. Sometimes, the background noise translates into programmatic content, like the loud rippling noise produced by deeply-gouged vinyl that suggests a storm-tossed setting in Faulty Spaceship Two. Rain-cloud will appeal to those drawn to the 'ambient electro-acoustic' material that's sometimes issued by labels like Type and CCO sub-label Büro. - Textura review www.myspace.com/usraincloud Read more on Last.fm.
