Foam and Sand’s Flow of Tonal Texture on “Circle 37” Induces a Lingering Sense of Tranquility

The oil refraction imagery in the video treatment for “Circle 37” by Robot Koch’s most recent project Foam and Sand matches well the introspective yet expansive drift of the song. The interplay and swim of colors pairs well with Priscilla Ahn’s wordless vocals and the slow roil of low end distorting into floating drones that slow swarm with textural detail and all collide into transcendent melodic resolves. It has the dynamic of eddies of air and suspended light in motion and there is refreshing tranquility to the song that lingers in the mind well after it has ended.
