Silhouette - Hůrka LP
pre-order: https://dolec.bandcamp.com/album/h-rka
artist: @silhouette_chik

The second album from Silhouette, ‘Hůrka’ sees the Czech producer & DJ venture further from ambient music than his debut, ‘Lost In The Circle’ (Krmelec Recordings, 2018) while remaining an artistically descriptive body of music.

‘Hůrka’ transcribes the landscapes of the Šumava region in the West of the Czech Republic into strident dance music laden with field recordings. Although the Bohemian forest, honeycombed with untamed rivers and hills, is a far cry from the dancefloors which ‘Hůrka’ seems primed for, Silhouette’s collection of field recordings encourages the mind to wander to pristine yet foreboding landscapes.

Drawing influence from prime-era minimalistic dubtechno (‘Closer To The Edge) to the darker shades of techno (‘Razor Thin’), house, breakbeat (‘Forgotten Dream’) and even dubstep, Silhouette weaves across the plateaus of modern dance music while remaining faithful to the image of pastoral landscapes that inspired the piece, with field recordings coming to the fore throughout more downtempo tracks such as ‘Calm Down’ and ‘Rainfall’.

The resulting body of work is balanced, bearing echoes of Silhouette’s previously released efforts while simultaneously pushing the project’s sound into new and expansive realms.
