Sonder' - the sophomore solo LP from Moonbeam founder Pavel Khvaleev. Following his 2017's 'Rebirth' debut, 'Sonder' is a continuation of effectively his life's work: breaking down the barrier between what we hear and what we see. 'Sonder's tracks are loosely themed around the Dictionary Of Obscure Sorrows' definition of the word. Namely the conceptual realisation that every random person passing us lives an existence every bit as real & intricate as our own. To realise this Pavel re-orbited with Moonbeam's established, extraordinary troupe of singers/artistic collaborators. Avis Vox, Blackfeel Wite, Loolacoma, Sopheary, Jacob A. & others - all vets of the group's 10-year run - resumed their inimitable singing & songwriting work. Others though are newer-comers to Pavel's high-texture universe. The album features first-time pairings with UK duo RINNGS, Polish composer producer and multi-instrumentalist Olga Wojciechowska and J-Pop sensation LIA. Through 'Sonder', Pavel is presenting an album that's as close to uncharted territory as exists in this electronic music day & age. Everything is relative on Planet Pavel, so to say that Disc 2's instrumentals are of a clubbier profile would be a qualified statement. It does however move onto a 4/4 footing, the warming of its synths on opening numbers like 'Nocturnal', 'Visions' and 'Find You' comparatively signalling a more 'up' tone to its second act. 'Forever' (with A*S*Y*S) locks in a groove factor, while 'Indigo', 'Sonorous', 'Blackout' and others assume trancier tempos and outlines. 'Shades Fade' closes out Pavel's dazzling second solo LP. In bleepy, quirky, engaging form, it plays with your perceptions of what he is/does to 'Sonder's very last.
