THE BLACK DOG - Loud Ambient 2 SUN RA Fifth track "Black Grease" isCD Loud Ambient 2 picks up directly from where Loud Ambient left off. After picking the drum machines back up, we returned to the colourfield ideas that shaped the first record. Rothko remained a key reference, along side a strong recommendation to spend time with the work of Josef Albers. We did exactly that, and it paid off. Alongside the music, we created 50 new pieces of artwork for Loud Ambient 2. These became tools rather than decorations.
