Bibio 8211 Phantom Brickworks 2LP

Phantom Brickworks is a project that Bibio has been working on for a while, inspired by places with an industrial history – the title referring to the ghosts of this activity living on in the landscape today. This completely instrumental output presents itself with the weight of a cinematic score, the ambient and drone arrangements looping to draw listeners into this emotionally affecting world of sound. Deviating from the more pop-eschewing songwriting of his recent releases, this album showcases Bibios immense talents as a musician. Appealing to diehard Bibio fans eager to see him stretch his artistic muscles, as well as fans of artists like Grouper, Olafur Arnalds, Basinski, Nils Frahm, Max Richter, and Johann Johannsson.
