Sophie's staff pick "This album is a fascinating take on ambient and unlike anything I've heard in the genre. Recorded on DIY tape machine in the early 80's it's flute and layered pads will take you somewhere that has no explanation."

***Sea glass wave clear coloured vinyl ***

Joanna Brouk's most ambitious recording, Sounds of the Sea is a concept album full of mystery and eroticism. A conch shell bookends this journey into the deep, going down and down and down further, never reaching bottom. Drawing inspiration from various legends of mermaids and sailors, Brouk weaves circling flutes, vocals, drones and whale songs to describe a sense of unfathomable longing more clearly than words could ever express. Sounds of the Sea is a hypnotic and profound achievement by one of new age's greatest composers.
