Description
Sonically As Above is a sparser, more minimal and more electronic experience than past albums. We looked for inspiration from James Blake, Nicolas Jaar, and APPARAT in keeping the music minimal and modern but still working as a textural and emotional extension of the lyrics.
Conveniently, Fink is married to Todd Fink of the celebrated electronica band THE FAINT, so they didnt have to look far for a guide into digital territory.
Longtime fans will be comforted to know that while in some ways As Above So Below is a departure, what isnt left behind is that unmatched, dreamy essence that arises when Fink and Taylor harmonize. You know an AZURE RAY song when you feel itits chilling and familiar, like a draft of wind on the heart. Its a haunted dreamscape thats so compelling and evocative its seen its way onto many soundtracks, appropriately as the protagonist is falling in or out of love. AZURE RAY captures expertly that fuzzy feeling, the unknowns of the beginnings and the deterioration of the endings, they are guides through the dark corridors and unknown passages of the heart.
