about

Sunder is the first full-length collaboration between Brooklyn-based Thomas Meluch (aka Benoît Pioulard) and Denver-based Jason Corder (aka offthesky). After years of independent work amid a like-minded community of ambient experimentalists, the two were brought together by the collaboration-centric Laaps label, for whom Corder has previously worked with Craig Tattersall (aka The Humble Bee).

Across Sunder's eight chapters, we hear careful constructions of tape-tinged guitar, voice, and field recordings, as well as strings, flute, bells and myriad other elements that arise and recede organically. Best experienced as a whole, the album's subtle flow is imbued with an arc that balances melancholy with windswept drift.
