Enter the Feeble Dream
Dahlia’s Tear enters 2023 with a new journey into abstract and ethereal imaginings with Tales from a Feeble Dream. Each new entry from this project is one more unique and whole facet that adds to the emotional oeuvre of releases from composer Anil Dahl. The gentle movements of each track stands vanguard before the wall of background haze, an ephemeral border between the mind and reality, and while many soundscape artists can craft sonic landscapes in this same manner, none craft like Dahlia’s Tear.
Previous entries from this project have shown us far-future transhumanist desolation, prehistory speculative science fiction, and even an interpretation of the Epic of Gilgamesh, and in Tales from a Feeble Dream, we are invited into a trance-like state of musical hypnagogia. As the pads swell and waft our senses, subtle field recordings and voices can emerge at times, almost imperceptible, and yet just loud enough to make their presence felt. Narratively, this story is vague, having a dream-like eloquence to the précis - someone standing at the threshold to the afterlife, entering into the hereafter.
The music of Dahlia's Tear is as insightful as it is masterful, and Tales from a Feeble Dream is just as one would expect from such a talented composer; a rich exploration of melancholic sound and atmosphere. Tales from a Feeble Dream is available in CD digipak and digital format on the Cryo Chamber Bandcamp page.
