With increasingly great, but exponentially soft harmonies that elevate the listener into the most reenergizing sphere of sonorous omnipotence, Meridian is a very uplifting album, that lives by the core of its harmony. Profoundly resting on the definitive majesty of its calmness, the marvelous melodies that divides the circumspection of the music maintains itself on the solidity of constantly evolving harmonies, that prompts a unique cohesion regarding the proper ascension of the music’s rhythm. With a slow dive, but a strong sense of unity, Meridian is a ten tracks album, that evolves from an ambiguous point of sensitive unbound intuition, never relying too much on a common basis, but always shifting the ethereal precision of its infinitely pronounced descriptive tonalities.
A great ambient album that always maintains the disruptive force of its incisive melodies, Meridian from the beginning exhibits a formal trait willing to revolve towards more ambitious goals, that projects organic musical hyperboles into a focus of consistent rhythms rearranged in interesting discursive patterns, somehow dispersing a new flow of creative influx. With a more circular sound, that projects its beginning in a path ostracized by a very familiar ending, Meridian goes way beyond the common boundaries usually seen in the genre, pushing to more figuratively soul frames unbroken harmonies that never seeks for an end, but always seems to start at the breaking point of a perceptive antagonism.
With an interesting pace and exceedingly vivid melodies, that balances in the wonderful rainbows of expressive eyes, the sound that we enjoy on this album is almost as detailed as it seems spontaneous. With an overview of sounds that seems infinite, an everlasting creative fortune appears to vividly describe dreams, in a very lucid interlude of pleasant configurations, almost unbearable to the ingenious heart. Nevertheless, with a sound that could describe the whole universe, Meridian is a very palpable album with an intangible voice, that seeks throughout the indefinite journey of thoughts the sensible stream of a monumental somnolence that dissipates the beautiful serenity of profound melodic purposes, always willing to renew the kindness of all hearts.
As the starting point of a glorious and uneventful journey, on which never lacks any happiness, Meridian, by Ascendant – a magnificent ambient music duo from California – has all the basis to be a divine gear of sonorous omnipotence, excellence, beauty and dynamism, with a powerful vigor that exposes a new and superbly original cadence into the music, being as unusual as discreet, sounding a lot more colorful, vivid and consistent than most acts in the genre. With a futuristic concept, a rearranging pattern of cadenced sensibility and a voracious method to stand on the point of a causal reinstatement of a marvelous transient universe, Meridian is an unbound vehement work of art that aggregates an innovative wave of devotional sincerity to a traditional prism of exceptionally cohesive sonorous layers, going far beyond the places the genre expected them to be!
