Six minutes of creatively immersive contemplation and calming rhythms – The Fisherman’s Voyage is every bit as engaging and blissfully calming as its title and artwork imply, and there’s plenty more to appreciate beyond this.
Featuring a uniquely ambient yet fast-paced meeting of elements for the soundscape – the single soon introduces distant, nearly whispered vocals, presenting deeply poetic reflections and imagery that naturally suits the implied concept of the song.
Meanwhile, meandering bass-lines and intermittent, long-form synth-riffs create an alternative melodic aspect – other sides to the story, crucial parts of the scenery and outside experience.
The compositional artistry of the whole thing is intriguing, yet this quality doesn’t overpower the natural embrace and warmth of the completed progression. It’s easy to let this play, and those threads keep things familiar throughout – yet still, you can acknowledge and enjoy each flicker of instrumental passion and almost jazz-like solo that falls into view.
It’s not difficult to understand why the song has such an extended life-span, thanks to these ever-evolving qualities. There’s a meditative core to the way the whole thing has been crafted, arranged and produced. And at the same time, should you wish to dig a little deeper, there are lyrical sign-posts and guides that help move your thoughts or imaginative visuals in the right direction.
This is what Tree Of Alchemical Notabiliity aim to do, throughout their releases. The music is far more about the listener than it is the artist, and that’s a rare and beautiful quality. Well worth exploring.
