Places: FM Ambient
This EP uses Polyend Medusa’s digital FM synth engine to channel a unique combination of nostalgia, yearning, and calm focus. Featuring a single synthesizer, “Places” presents a variety of sounds that aim to be neither retro nor futuristic. Instead, it hopes to present itself as timeless: an artifact from a gap year when the world stood still.
