Narshe Marlo Eggplant's album, Split, is a haunting and ethereal collection of tracks that showcases the artist's unique blend of experimental electronics and ambient soundscapes. The album is a collaboration between Eggplant and fellow experimental musician, David Colohan, and the result is a mesmerizing journey through a dreamlike landscape of sound.
From the opening track, "The Air is Getting Thin," the listener is immediately transported to a world of eerie, otherworldly textures and atmospheric drones. The album's six tracks are all relatively lengthy, allowing Eggplant and Colohan to slowly build and evolve each piece, adding layers of sound and subtle shifts in tone and mood.
The standout track on the album is undoubtedly "The Silence of the Woods," which features haunting vocals from Colohan that float over a bed of pulsing synths and glitchy beats. The track is a masterclass in atmospheric tension, with Eggplant and Colohan expertly building and releasing tension throughout the song's ten-minute runtime.
