What our staff has to say: “Before the Marv LP I had never heard anything off of enmossed or anything previous from Marv. This record blew me away and made me a fan of enmossed as a label immediately. Easily will be a top 3 record for me this year.” – Kobe
Thereโs a body of water in the woods near Carrboro. Dappled light on the trail leads you to it. Crunch of leaves underfoot. A river feeds the swimming hole where people plunge, naked and alive. On a chair you sit reminiscing about the future. After a dip, you lay on a big smooth rock – let the sun bake you dry. Then you walk further into the woods.
Like coming upon some keyboardists situated at the mouth of a cave, the entreaties on this record are calming but enigmatic, tinged with melancholy and reflection. Recurring motifs are given room to growโthereโs much space, and the progressions percolate, an auditory mapping of emotional crevices. Sentimentalism given a rougher edge. It lures you in; an orb appears, bright and buzzing. It motions for you to continue. As you do, a fragrance floats through the cave and fills your psyche, like a thousand roses hidden in the dark.
On ๐พ๐๐ฆ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ข๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐. ๐ผ, MARV imbues analog subtractive and FM synthesis with a distinct physicality. Dub studio techniques and rigorously hand-played performances create an ‘environmental’ keyboard masterpiece strongly connected to the lineage of 1970s-80s private press ambient and electronic recordings– but elegantly modern sound design and production methods center the album in the present day. A timeless quality pervades ๐พ๐๐ฆ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ข๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐. ๐ผ, allowing for easy repeats, marinating the subconscious ache of loss with a dreamily resolute hope.
