You can hear the sound of waves coming into shore on Cloud Opacity’s “Noshine Coast” and through the melodic drones you can also hear what sounds like cars driving by on a highway. What makes the title effective with this soundscape is that you can experience these sensations without needing the visuals. Like you’re sitting near that shore in the dark of night with maybe a bank of fog obscuring the stars before moonrise. It’s a feeling of being out of normal time because the evolving background tones could hit as either late night or early morning before the sun climbs into the sky to burn away that fog. Its a feeling of mysterious tranquility that washes into your mind with the slow-lapping waves and arc of tonal texture. It’s a very specific aural sense of space that Cloud Opacity has crafted here with elegance and sonic poetry. Listen to “Noshine Coast” on Spotify and follow Cloud Opacity at the links below.
