Swedish artists, Johan Agebjorn and Mikael Ogren, present an electronic music travelogue inspired by their experiences from within the Republic of Karelia, bringing a poetic illumination to the lesser-known landscape of Northern Russia on the eastern border of Finland with their new collaboration We Never Came To The White Sea on the Spotted Peccary Music label.
This ambient electronic soundtrack's tonal character, melodic harmonies, and synth atmospheres set a scene for traversing vast forests and expansive topologies, magically revealed through the Karelian night and cinematic sunsets of Vodlozersky National Park.
These rich and evolving synthesizer sequences organically entwine with melancholy piano passages and ethereal visages of acclaimed vocalist, Sally Shapiro. Somewhat reminiscent of musical inspirations Pete Namlook and Klaus Schulze, We Never Came To The White Sea, powerfully expresses Agebjorn and Ogren's impressions of such a beautiful country enriched with old culture and haunting energy.
