GoGo Penguin’s “Glimmerings” begins as the name suggests with a faint, sub-ambient stirring of sounds that blooms into a finely accented bass line arpeggio and percussion shuffle over a slowly unfolding, background synth wash. When the piano comes in to provide a structured melody with a sense of urgency it’s like all the elements combine to heighten a sense of emotional cleansing through rigorous and intricate expressions of pure feeling. The complimentary tonal motion and collective mood conveys a strong sense of coming to a realization after mulling over disparate thoughts and feelings for a sense of uplift and clarity.
