Ocular, the latest album by Gstaad, is a mesmerizing journey through a sonic landscape that is both hypnotic and haunting. From the opening track, "Ritual," the listener is transported into a world of pulsing beats, ethereal synths, and atmospheric textures.
Throughout the album, Gstaad demonstrates a mastery of mood and atmosphere, creating a sense of tension and release that keeps the listener engaged from start to finish. Tracks like "Echoes" and "Spectral" showcase the artist's ability to blend electronic and acoustic elements, resulting in a sound that is both organic and otherworldly.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Aurora," a dreamy, ambient piece that evokes the beauty and mystery of the Northern Lights. With its shimmering synths and gentle rhythms, the song is a perfect example of the album's ability to transport the listener to another world.
