When you listen to Brush, you are immediately immersed into a different world. It is a world full of colors, life and beauty—much like the album art. Grant Eadie (Manatee Commune) manages to say everything without many words in this album— think audible poetry—with the way he incorporates nature, video game sounds, violins and even wind chimes into his music. This combination of sounds makes the listener feel like they’re being taken on an adventure to somewhere new and exciting. His unique sound lets your mind wander down a rabbit hole as if you were Alice: a natural, magical fantasy land that man hasn’t laid a hand on. Brush is very mellow and relaxing, which I highly recommended for studying or simply background music. On Facebook, he describes his genre as rainy goodness, and it’s music like his that can be compared to a breath of fresh air right before the rain hits.
Check this album out if you’re a fan of Aphex Twin and M83.
