Harmonic drones and hazy textures usher in the soundscape of “Breathing Out” by Hidden Blindness. When the slow moving melodies drift in as layers and then out the song conveys a sense of stillness like sunrise over a frozen pond in mid-winter. Gently rising flares of tone intermingle with icy synth swells like voices. A sustained brightness of tone that flows throughout the song lends it a quality like coming out of a long period of restful slumber with the mind free of the daily concerns that can anchor it to immediate wakefulness in which one is expected to perform some mundane workday duty. It’s a refreshing bit of music that can take you out of the everyday moment for a few minutes. If this is music as escapism your brain is probably better for it.
