Share

Desert Vision’s Pure Kalotype Vol. 2 proposes an immersive auditory journey from dawn to dusk through imagined desert landscapes. Released on Purple Tape’s label, this second installment expands upon the foundation laid by its predecessor, blending the work of seasoned label artists—like Jannemuru, Landsman, and Purple Tape—with emerging talents, including Tal Tobi, Saporta, Fleek, and Baladeva Balarama.

The journey begins in a warm, organic soundscape, with natural rhythms and gentle melodies evoking the start of a desert day, as the sun begins to heat the dunes, casting soft light on the surroundings. As the sun descends, the sounds evolve, gradually introducing more structured electronic elements that mirror the oncoming night. The tracks start to layer with a building tension, adding depth and mystery, guiding us into the unknown depths of the night.

The shift from light to darkness is mirrored by variations in rhythm and tone, reflecting the transition from earthy elements to the more abstract facets of electronic music. Fleek and Baladeva Balarama, in particular, delve into hypnotic and pulsating rhythms that seem to capture the vast, silent majesty of the desert as the sun sets. The final tracks plunge into nocturnal soundscapes, marked by darker tones and enveloping atmospheres that leave the listener suspended in a contemplative universe of sound.

Pure Kalotype Vol. 2 is more than a compilation; it’s a journey that celebrates contrast and transition, both in the desert and within the human experience. With a curated selection and sound architecture, it proposes a listening experience that is as emotional as it is aesthetic. Desert Vision once again demonstrates its ability to create sonic worlds that transport the listener, capturing the beauty and mystery of both nature and night.
