Review by Bree
Bogart's latest album, In A Post Oil World, is a captivating blend of electronic and acoustic sounds that takes the listener on a journey through imagined landscapes of a world without oil. The album opens with the pulsing beat of "The Great Transition," which sets the tone for the rest of the tracks. "Solar Flare" and "Wind Power" showcase Bogart's ability to create intricate soundscapes that are both meditative and energizing.
The album's standout track, "Electric Dreams," features haunting vocals and a driving rhythm that builds to a crescendo before fading into a dreamy outro. "Green Revolution" and "Eco City" are more upbeat tracks that showcase Bogart's talent for creating danceable beats that are still thought-provoking.
Throughout the album, Bogart explores themes of sustainability, climate change, and the human impact on the environment. The use of field recordings, such as the sound of wind turbines and birdsong, adds a sense of realism to the tracks and enhances the album's overall message.
