Black Brunswicker - 'Been Around Here Before'

7/10

Ever since they first emerged, Manchester-based US artist Black Brunswicker has always looked to create this beautifully vivid approach to their sound. Blending a heady mix of soaring soundscapes with wonderfully ethereal production has given them this wildly immersive aesthetic that only seems to grow further and more expansive with everything they do. And after an incredibly prolific run of releases already this year, they return once again with their latest studio album 'Been Around Here Before', a record that builds upon that enigmatic foundation once again.

Immersing themselves in this wonderfully serene and alluring style throughout, 'Been Around Here Before' continues that effervescent appeal they have been conjuring over the years. Offering up this wondrous array of calming endeavours that feel bigger and more anthemic as the LP moves along, Black Brunswicker find themselves in a wonderfully progressive guise that looks to harness the power behind their emotive aesthetic, and deliver something truly atmospheric from beginning to end.

It may have come after an incredibly busy time for them, but 'Been Around Here Before' shows there is still plenty of fresh and inventive spirit coursing through them right now. Brimming with this almost otherworldly feel as it plays, Black Brunswicker continues to shine as a true innovator on the scene right now.
