Manu Shrine - Wave Form


Manu Shrine, from Russia, joins the growing ranks of mysterious
musicians, pumping out dopeness from beyond our fingertips,
somewhere between the shadows.

His sound is definitely, post-dubstep by way of chillout -
 a softly pulsing bassline, echoing pianos and the skittering
percussion oft associated with post-dubstep. What enhances
the intimacy he creates here is how he has the male and female 
vocal samples play off each other as if they are trapped in a
duet within a ghostly realm.

It's melancholia made beautiful, longing made bearable.
