about

Seer's album "Glimpsing Into Oblivion" marks the first collaboration between songwriter and soundtrack composer Chris Bozzone and film and concert hall composer Peter Scartabello.

"Glimpsing Into Oblivion" is a set of immensely haunting vocal-based songs that are drenched in lush atmospherics and extraordinary melodic arrangements. Trance-inducing synthesizer based compositions oscillate between unearthly drones, sustained bass tones, deep pulsations to eerily beautiful, cinematic, and ethereal instrumentation that includes a diverse array of cosmic tones from kalimba, harmonium, various percussive elements with both hand percussion and drum kit, acoustic and electric guitar and piano.

Lyrical imagery running through this album is nightmarish, erotic and surrealistic while also hypnotically alluring in its building potency as the record progresses. The strange and mysterious beauty of Chris Bozzone's vocals are elevated to an incredible degree by Peter Scartabello's soaring and transporting arrangements on all of these tracks. In turn, "Glimpsing Into Oblivion" strives for a kind of dreamlike emotional transcendence that is utterly distinct in its cumulative sound, feel and impact.

The gripping tonal colors and lyrical themes found within "Glimpsing Into Oblivion" circle around a kind of film in song form. Evoking the films of Andrei Tarkovsky, Andrzej Zulawski, Sergei Paradjanov, Frantisek Vlacil, Jess Franco, Philippe Garrel, Jean Rollin and Alain Robbe-Grillet, the album is a singular amalgamation of different musical languages with everything from esoteric and avant-garde classical/minimalist stylings to enthralling dark ambient and hypnagogic soundscapes.

As a newcomer to Dungeon Synth, (and now producing it myself, as a result of my fascination), this was the artist that caught my attention. The production is nice and 'crisp', you can hear everything that is going on. Yet, underneath it all, there is still a lush sense of mystery that conjures up a lot of day-dreaming on my part. I grew up around forests and ponds, and alas, don't have such easy access anymore. But if I listen to this music, it takes me to those wonderful places. vuhvoidloves
