Natural Snow Buildings - Two Sides Of A Horse

Review by Laurie Simmons

Natural Snow Buildings' album "Two Sides of a Horse" is a mesmerizing and hauntingly beautiful work of art. The French duo, Mehdi Ameziane and Solange Gularte, create a soundscape that is both ethereal and earthy. The album is a journey through different sonic landscapes, with each track taking the listener on a unique adventure.

The album opens with "The Horse," a 20-minute track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The track starts with a slow, droning sound that gradually builds into a crescendo of layered, textured soundscapes. The track is both calming and unsettling, with a sense of foreboding that runs throughout.

The album's title track, "Two Sides of a Horse," is a hauntingly beautiful piece of music that showcases the duo's ability to create atmosphere and mood. The track is a slow, dreamy ballad that is both melancholic and uplifting. The duo's use of acoustic guitar, piano, and strings creates a sense of intimacy and vulnerability that is both heartbreaking and heartwarming.

Other standout tracks on the album include "The Snowbringer Cult," a track that is both dark and mystical, and "The Night Watchman," a track that is both eerie and calming.
