Chicago (USA)- based electronic/ambient music veteran, artist, multi-instrumentalist/noise mastermind Mark Solotroff will release his new full-length, In Search Of Total Placelessness, on 25 April. In Search Of Total Placelessness is an exploration of the transient, the ephemeral, and the interplay of difference that defines our existence. Mark Solotroff created this album to dissolve the boundaries of traditional spatial and temporal structures, inviting listeners into a realm where meaning is constantly deferred and redefined.
Each track embodies a fluid state of flux, resonating with the raw chill of analog synthesizers and the atmospheric depth of transmuted location recordings that Mark Solotroff made in Chicago, Milan, and Venice. These places, with their distinct sounds and ambiances, weave an intricate tapestry that grounds the music in reality, yet the album's soundscape transcends these origins, creating an otherworldly experience.
In advance of the record’s release, Mark Solotroff presents the first single, "Immediately After Vanishing”. The track allows listeners to drift into the deep, immersive layers of sound becoming unfamiliar, which explore the spaces between moments, where one may find unconventional beauty in the momentary and the ever-changing.
