Remansum
The latin word “Remansum” (backwater) suggests the action or the result of stopping and remaining in a place. It alludes to both the place in a river where the waters seem to stop and be still and to an idyllic place where one enjoys a deep calm. The tracks of Remansum feature delicate impressionistic piano melodies that flow alongside distinct electronic textures. Some tracks feature cello melodies played by guest musicians and one track includes subtle bandoneon sounds. The track “Ayse” features the voice of an old Turkish woman from a small village near the Black sea, humming and praying while cooking. The music is at times melancholic and yet mysterious. The music genre is a combination of ambient music, neoclassic and electronic.
