A long, instrumental electronic piece, “Chanting The Square Deific” is Nicola Caleffi’s second effort as Sun Forest. Clocking in at 40 minutes, and sometimes resembling the explorations in generative music of pioneer such as David Behrman and the ambient droning orchestration of Stars Of The Lids, the track feeds itself with multiple layers of synthesized sounds which, alternating dynamic and quieter parts, finally shapes a wave-like sonic landscape - a flowing movement which is, ultimately, a paean to the transcendental sensuality of Nature.
“I felt myself to be, for an unknown period of time, an abstract perceiver of the world. The vague, living countryside, the moon, the remains of the day worked on me, as well as the slope of the road which eliminated any possibility of weariness. The afternoon was intimate, infinite. The road descended and forked among the now confused meadows. A high-pitched, almost syllabic music approached and receded in the shifting of the wind, dimmed by leaves and distance. I thought that a man can be an enemy of other men, of the moments of other men, but not of a country: not of fireflies, words, gardens, streams of water, sunsets.” (Jorge Luis Borges)

Isolated and moody spaces, filled with compressed air that fluctuates as soft ghostly melodies subtly sway the energy in the room. Each stray presence has a story to tell, none of them feeling particularly sad nor joyful, yet they offer a strange comfort even in the unknown. Lost Tribe Sound
