Spacious, mellow and mystical - Mystral has had a long-lasting impact on me as a musician and music lover and I've come to a point where his music has turned outright instructional to my artistic path. His style is unmistakable yet willing and capable to paint new dimensions in sound that are yet to be charted and mapped by a conscious explorer. Few have travelled there it seems and so I want to help promote this most magical domain his music opens a gateway to.
Mystral's sound is characterized by deep and steady subbass, marvellously enticing fields of auditory pads and resonances, mixed with a hefty dose of synthwork and high-grade sonic engineering to deliver music that can take the listener away instantly, and show all sorts of interesting revelations along the way. Worlds of wobbles flimmer in and out of existence while the painting becomes more and more palpable and... actual. It's quite the sonic revelation especially if you are not listening to this sort of music often. It might just make you a believer ;)
A true (and hugely underrated) master of his craft!
Just like his previously featured "Infinite Echoes EP" I have come to fall in love with this record and so I wanted to include it in this list of underrated conscious music.
As with most of the music promoted in this series it's not really sensible to talk about it when I can just invite you to give it a listen, maybe it will be totally your thing and all these words won't even do it justice.
So to give you a taster here's the title track off Mystral's World Without Limits EP:
And although I can't share the whole EP in one video I can refer you to a full youtube playlist with all the tracks off the record, just >>>click this link<<< (unembeddable)
Best of all, Mystral is one of those brave artists putting his work on ektoplazm.com, freely available to anyone in high quality mp3 as well as WAV. If you dig his sound you can download the entire EP from there to enjoy without obligations or conditions. What an awesome dude!
If you still wish to support the artist on his endeavors please consider buying or donating via merkabamusic's bandcamp page, all of his releases can be found there.
