Album22 Tracks32:142024‘The Temple’, from composer, producer, multi-instrumentalist and sound designer Matthew Simms (Memorials, Wire, It Hugs Back), invites you into a realm of ethereal beauty and introspective melancholy. Prepare to be enveloped by morphing Juno-6 pads, mournful drones, and glacial synth washes that evoke a sense of transcendental awe and celestial wonder. Simms, known for his experimental approach to sound design, masterfully blends vintage warmth with otherworldly textures, creating a sonic tapestry that is both haunting and mesmerising. ‘The Temple’ is a sonic sanctuary for composers and sound designers seeking to evoke moments of quiet contemplation, ethereal beauty, and the bittersweet embrace of melancholy.
