Inspired by the alluring spaces between sound and music – more precisely, influenced in part by the mysterious 52Hz whale, known for its unusually high-frequency call – SOUND52 is a uniquely organic electronic music studio, within which profoundly evocative compositions are born; crafted from an enchanting fusion of emotion, memory, nature, and movement.
Often designed to bring together the calming ambience of atmospheric frequencies, with the blissful euphoria of electronic trance – the pulsating rhythms and sublime melodies of much of SOUND52’s growing collection meet with a certain serenity; a calming sonic texture that’s all-consuming to have rain down around you.
It’s this meeting of delicacy and vibrancy, of skill and substance, that lets these compositions truly stand out as examples of the pure power of high-quality cinematic audio escapism.
Built up from instrumental works created by SOUND52, tracks like Rising Pulse instantly envelop the listener, delivering a striking and powerful wave of multi-layered orchestral melodic trance, and in the process achieving an engaging balance between recognisable riffs, refrains, melodies, and beautifully soulful peaks.
With subtly distorted synths, keys, and mildly impassioned vocals, a clear attention to detail resounds, introducing the SOUND52 skillset and studio as clearly devoted to curating music of substance and skill; a focused sound that’s both distinct and completely, utterly immersive.
As a further example, there’s a certain immersive and neo-classical softness and wonder to the aptly-titled soundscape Fading Into Gold. Where Rising Pulse was a sheer rush of euphoric energy and emotion, Fading Into Gold feels beautifully calming at first – a deeply ambient sense of peaceful warmth, with a smoothness and almost pop-like sensibility to its layers, and the track slowly evolves into something more energising and bright.
As a creative producer, SOUND52 seeks to intertwine passion and precision at the helm, uniquely combining live instruments and musicianship with electronic production and modern production tools. This unrivalled ability ultimately withstands the weight of multiple genres, meaning the sound is far from confined to a single style, and instead emerges with a limitlessly diverse range.
Consider the mellow and dreamy tones of Just Take It Easy, an afro-rap arrangement crafted from deep bass lines and an ethereal, laid-back and likable groove. With tribal rhythms and a certain playful vocal meandering, this track employs the same skilful approach, but brings about a twist of character from a different vibe, and the ability of SOUND52 to so seamlessly switch lanes is instantly impressive.
Tracks like Built on My Own further this innate ability to move between styles, the producer never losing sight of the ambient instrumental value of music at large, presenting a neo-jazz twist of ambient bliss, alongside a playful hip hop core that’s easy going and colourful.
The flow is fresh, almost melodic, rising and falling like waves of calmly confident expression, and as ever, SOUND52 delivers a next-level take on a timeless style.
Standing tall atop a clear understanding of the necessary charm of great music, and the importance of knowing your audience, SOUND52 is effectively pushing the boundaries of diverse music creation built for everything from pure escapism to meditation, motivation, euphoria, storytelling, deep focus and study music.
In short, SOUND52 is a creative studio built around an unwavering passion for the eclecticism and unity of stunning music, and the quality and heart of the releases speaks volumes.
