Principal member Mike Graff is no stranger to the ambient music scene, having been involved in a wide range of instrumental projects over the past decade, and as a creator of ambient pad sounds used by churches around the globe. Featured worldwide in a variety of films and art projects, Dear Gravity's first three releases - Remedy Pictures, Shadows Vol. I, and I Hope This Letter Finds You Well - have all been met with critical acclaim.
His new EP is the first of a three part 'Pilgrimage' series released on Echoes Blue Music (Salt of the Sound, Narrow Skies).
This EP is simply breathtaking. This is ambient music at it's very best. Dear Gravity combines cinematic elements with electronica and a slight bit of rock in this EP. When you listen to it you feel like you could be in a movie. Imagine the scene: it's a beautiful summers day, the sky is blue, there's a light breeze and you are walking through the trees where the light and shade hit the floor - this music is what you need while you are away with your thoughts. I love this.
I really got lost in wonder when hearing these sounds, I shut off from the noise of a busy day. Of course all these songs work so well as instrumentals but I actually think the track 'Departure, Pt I//Canvas' with some female vocals and some strong lyrics would be amazing and work so well... just a little thought.
As this is only 6 tracks long, I was left wanting more, so the fact this is a three part series is fantastic. I can not wait for what is about to happen next. But for now this EP is a great find if you are looking for atmospheric and ambient music to enjoy.
