Thorsten Soltau

Thorsten Soltau is a Germany-based artist who has been working since 2009. Until now his works were released on labels focusing on noise/soundscape such as Auf Abwegen, Gerauschmanufaktur, Chondritic Sound, Sentimental Productions, and so on. Glaciers, dedicated to his lost friend, is a 31.5 minutes long piece and it is filled with ambience and electronic drone. The tones are sometimes gentle and warm, and sometimes melancholy. There are sounds of objects, voices, electronic sounds, and various other sounds flying in and out of the drones, as if we are listening to a requiem or watching the flashback of Soltau's friend's whole life.
