T’ien Lai, which translates as „celestial music”, is yet another interesting project from the enigmatic Milieu L’Acephale’s catalogue. Influenced in equal measure by ancient Jewish mysticism and the works of Philip K. Dick, Bydgoszcz duo use vintage radios, samplers, synths and a variety of effects to create deeply meditative sound situated somewhere within the definition of ambient music.
