Audiopile Review: Swedish duo Gidge have their 2014 debut reissued, an underrated ambient-techno gem that has built a cult following since it’s release a decade back, some tracks racking up to 11 million streams! This 2xLP edition includes two extra tracks, “Dusk” and “Growth”, both left off the initial vinyl pressing. Occupying a space between the lusher end of Four Tet and the hypnotizing minimalism of The Field, the duo utilize samples of vocals, saxophone, piano and other acoustic elements, warping and stretching them across warm, pulsing rhythms. A textural crackle of field of recordings and sunburnt tonal ambience add a layer of inviting depth. Its about as organic sounding as this type of stuff gets. Incredible album that stands tall even a decade on.
One of the most beautiful albums of this decade gets a re-issue on 2-vinyl – in 2014 the Swedish duo Gidge released their debut: Autumn Bells.
“The very beginning of I Fell in Love are the most passionate and emotional couple of notes i have heard.”
“An incredibly organic listen from start to finish, ‘Autumn Bells’ is the season’s distilled feeling put in song. Gidge successfully captures microscopic moments of decay and beauty within the framework of pop and ambient-inflected techno.“
“An utterly captivating piece of work. Each new listen only enriches the songs.”
“One of the finest, most enjoyable electronic albums I have heard in recent times. Every sound is so well thought out and sculpted, some seriously head-tingling music.“
