LuganLux Impossible to choose one track as they all work together as one. This album is so damn smooth and entrancing. It's on repeat late at night when I have troubles sleeping.

Μaπ Β Terrain is apt as not only do images of landscapes, mountains, valleys, caverns, and plains come to mind, but nuance and motion emerge the more still and introspective the listener becomes. What first appears to be a tree reveals itself to be an entire ecosystem when you see the ants crawling up and down, birds coming and going..

Despite others mentioning high fidelity, the messages and emotions behind the music are still strong and gorgeous enough to come through on shitty $20 ear buds ;) Favorite track: Terrain 1.

Pattrn Beautiful and very poetic release. Love the space and open-ness of Terrain 1 feels like the ocean caressing your skin.

holobiont Delightful and deep terrains. Beautiful slow attacks. Affective but not sentimental. Some amazing design and arrangements. T5 created the sensory illusion of sound emanating from within my skull. Headphones or high fidelity speakers essential. Thanks Joachim 🙏

Dirk Ruhfus Listening to this, the imagery of hiking alone through deep forests at night arises in me.

Headphones, closed eyes and undisturbed silence mandatory.

Chris Hoonoes It has a atmosphere so deep and dense, you could drowning. Ambient from a master of sounddesign. Highly recommended!

about

With ‘Terrain,’ Joachim Spieth presents the fourth long player on his Affin imprint.
The follow-up album to ‘Ousia’ (2021), ‘Terrain,’ reflects on the human relationship with nature. The album title is a reference to a musical language that layers Spieth’s music production practices and intimacy with nature.
‘Terrain’ was forged in deep solitude.“ It’s an interplay of euphoric flashes and introspection” – says Spieth. The eight compositions take the listener into a captivating cascade of sonic textures resembling internal states fluctuations and emotional release. The tension between the organic warmth and static curves broads tones into liquified roars and empty spaces.
Unlike Spieth’s previous albums, ‘Terrain’ holds more intimate gestures and emotional sensibility. Soothing frequencies here are intended to create a state of awareness in the listener. It is a work of conceptual and emotional beauty, evoking a form of spatial imagery that is as grounding as elevating.
