Prayer
It’s been over a year and not a word. Prayer’s been waiting silently on the sidelines. Working on something new.
“Silence Before is developed through three movements. Like the three part symphony it consists of a fast opening section followed by a slower middle, and ending again with a fast final.” Prayer told us.
The piece reflects upon the influence of classical trends on current electronic music. He explains that, “There are two keys present in Silence before. E minor and A minor. The calculated move to the latter at the end represents the trend in symphonic works in the 19th century of modulation to unexpected keys.”
Citing influences like Sinioa Caves, Vangelis and Claude Risset the elusive producer has composed Silence Before as a precursor to his upcoming sophomore EP Beneath.
Listen to Silence Before in the player and grab Beneath from 2 November when it’s released via Prayer’s Grade 10 label.
