Beautiful album review of Ritual by Post-Punk.com
Denuit ventures into uncharted territories of artistic expression with Ritual. Traditional confines of genre dissipate, granting precedence to unfettered creativity and innovation. This transformation finds its counterpart in Lis’s vocals, an eerie reverberation evocative of mythic lamentations, narrating an enthralling duality of realms, as if caught in the evanescent embrace of dusk. This ethereal domain beckons us to confront our vulnerabilities, celebrate our deepest affections, and emerge renewed, unencumbered, and primed to begin anew.
Ivi’s compositions, intensified by haunting electronic notes, curate the ambient backdrop. This soundscape decisively shifts towards the electronic realm, leaving no room for ambiguity. Deep bass notes dominate as synthesizers pulse vibrantly, their modern beats harmoniously intertwined with the time-honored melodies of violins and pianos. The occasional electronic disruption—momentary glitches and sonic sparks—paints a picture of a world precariously balanced on the brink of upheaval. Ultimately, it serves as a deeply felt tribute to Cyberpunk, reveling in both its visual and sound-rich complexities.
