Ambient composer returning with Movement
Based in Venice, Italy
Soft-focus ambient with limpid piano figures, fogged synths and reverb-heavy harmonic drift. Movement leans more pulsing than his older material, with a low-key rhythmic lift that keeps it close to the body.
Masin is a Venetian ambient veteran whose 1986 album Wind became a reference point after disappearing from view for years. His later renaissance fed into the wider reissue-and-sampling wave around ambient music, and Movement is his first solo full-length since Calypso.
After Wind in 1986, he disappeared from view for decades before returning.
