Instrumental composer and producer David Ratmoko, inspired by a breadth of musical corners from eighties synth-based to traditional and neo-classical, delivers the very best of his intoxicating creativity, with the vast and immersive, distinct yet deeply involving single Prelude Three.
Built around an engaging fusion of humble distortion, electronic warmth, and organic melodic threads, the style is both familiar and unmistakable – creating a consistently descending pattern of chords that feels theatrical and intimate all at once.
It’s a gripping listen, recognisable after a single play, yet impossible to pigeon-hole in terms of its artistic intertwining of aspects from both the Electronic and Classical realms. The track is also cinematic and mighty for its sense of purpose and story, which increasingly holds tight to the listener’s attention.
Renowned for his expressive combining of these two worlds, David Ratmoko’s Prelude Three speaks strongly behalf of the influences and intentions of his growing repertoire of original music. The established pianist and composer turned his sights towards the solo electronic realm only this year, but was quick to assert his worth for the enchanting and evocative yet skillful make-up of all of his singles to date.
