Watch This Obscure Video For Shape Navigator’s Pleasantly Harrowing Norham Sunrise

Taken from his multi-faceted album Journal, the latest Shape Navigator video explores the sonic sculpture and sound trajectories developed by artists such as Warrington Runcorn New Town Development Plan and Craven Faults. Technical and introspective, the genre leans towards philosophy through audibility rather than groove and rhythm. Norham Sunrise was made by collecting various found recordings collected around the Northumberland coast. Like J.M.W. Turner, Shape Navigator was inspired by the brilliance and vivacity of the mixtures of sun, water, and sky, where the universe meets itself at a crossroads of natural beauty. With a video made by @diz_qo, it’s as unusual as it is unmissable, especially for eclectic electric fans.

Tapping echoes and crackling static coalesce with a drone high end that carries into beeps. A layer of thick and insisting bass then moves gently underneath, pushing the particular descriptors like glacial regolith. Viper-like strikes of drum beat repeatedly at the sides of a shrinking box while ambient and mysterious cosmic whistles and strings glide through shapes made from momentary dream. A burst of harmony carries the piece forward once more, as the melody begins to dominate the surge of kinesis, an orchestral flow creates a bubble of imagination to sit within, entranced and focused.
