Chromosphere: Midnight Tram Through Old Town

from Quiet Drones 6 by Quiet Drones

/

about

Borne of one musician's struggle to compose, Chromosphere began, though under differing guises, in 1989 as the solo project of Kris Helström. Without established parameters of genre, Chromosphere uses electronic sounds, both analogue and digital, as well as found-sound, from within and without our atmosphere, and some elements of guitar, bass and on occasion other assorted instruments not unusual to a symphony orchestra, to explore soundscapes both grand and intimate. Collaborations with a few close friends over the years is what makes Chromosphere still vital to its composer in his never ending attempt to bridge avant-garde and ambient music to a somewhat more accessible dance or uptempo style. Spending a lot of time exploring both extremes and often compromising to somewhere in the middle.

"Midnight Tram Through Old Town" is an impression piece, that remains much closer to the ambient pole. A late night trip along rain washed streets on rusted rails past empty store fronts.
