Exclusive video premiere of ‘Plasma’ by Lunt, taken from the latest album, ‘Remember We Were Waiting For The Snow,’ out via Cruel Nature Records.

Žils Deless-Vēliņš (Lunt) has held a mystical relationship to sound and music since he was a child, and his crafting of music can be compared to a construction kit game, where music as a whole is more than the sum of sounds. For him, sound has a kinship with the concept of pneuma in Stoicism philosophy. Sound expects to be found to become music, lying there in an intuitive background.

He has worked on a wide range of experimental projects, as a songwriter, sound engineer, and is the co-founder of French-based label We Are Unique! Records. He is now based in Latvia where music is a ground for everyday life, and essential to Latvian identity.

‘Remember We Were Waiting For The Snow’ is about what is called “solastalgia:” our anxiety, our concern, our sadness to see some natural phenomenon disappear. Written 5 years ago, after Žils relocated to Latvia, it is a collection of exquisite reflective moving guitar-driven ambience drawing from the sonic as well as soundscapers like Jim O’Rouke.
