Ben Lukas Boysen — Nocturne 2

Опубликовано: 19 окт. 2013 г.Track 7/8, from Gravity (Ad Noiseam adn168).

The following of Nocturne 1, taking back the ethereal drums from the first part.

I imagine astronauts in an orbital station. They're barely awake as they are still hidden in the shadow of the Earth. This is for me the introduction of almost 90 seconds with the synthesizers' layer, a moment of blur and swaying.

At 1:23, they open their eyes and start preparing for a scheduled outing into space this morning. You're not so often 350 kilometers up in the atmosphere, and one thing I'd like to see up there is a sunrise over the whole planet. They start dressing their space suits and already catch sight of the halo of light announcing the sun, over the horizon formed by half the circumference of our planet. It's time to hurry if you want a good spot on the solar panels.

At 2:59, the sun finally rises, radiating its light in the atmosphere, on the cities, the lands, the oceans, and its warmth spreads all over your suit and reaches the bottom of your heart. It's beautiful, spectacular and unique. The deep drums and the strong play on the piano conveys for me the intensity and the beauty of that moment, particularly at 3:42 and 3:47 that seems to slap you hard in the face and blow your mind up. This whole part is really shaking and unforgettable, and the progression of the notes' pitch is just epic.

You can see that our astronauts try to memorise each frame of that moment as they won't see it again in such a perfect way.

At 4:26, you start to leave them where they are, letting them enjoy this moment alone, and slowly stepping backwards to the Earth. The orbital station is now just a dark dot in the blinding light of the sun, and the faded chorus in the end of this track make the moment surreal. but it's time to go back to reality.

Enjoy folks, and if you feel like it, I'd like you to share your sensations too, here in the comments section or on my Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/adda.ambient
