Sun Boxes - Sun Boxes 7"

Sun Boxes is a very interesting ambient/field recording project that originates from a solar powered sound installation by Craig Colorusso. They've just released a recording consisting of two tracks recorded by Kevin Belli in Massachusetts. Very relaxing and minimalistic, perfect music for all kinds of situations/environments.  Here's an excerpt from their About section, but be sure to check out the rest of their website to find out more about them.

"Sun Boxes are an environment to enter and exit at will. It’s comprised of twenty speakers operating independently, each powered by the sun via solar panels. There is a different loop set to play a guitar note in each box continuously. These guitar notes collectively make a Bb chord. Because the loops are different in length, once the piece begins they continually overlap and the piece slowly evolves over time.


The sounds of Sun Boxes have been described as both soothing and energizing. A unique combination of adjectives often used to describe yoga, or meditation. When experiencing the piece, Sun Boxes allows the participant to slow down, and notice the subtleties of the composition unfold. With the abundance of technology and hustle of this culture it is a much needed concept to not only be allowed, but also encouraged to slow down."
