New Release
Water Still Flows Rich Ruth
Water Still Flows" is the fourth album by multi-instrumentalist Michael Rich Ruth and his second with Third Man. Known for his ambient and dark ambient music, Ruth incorporates influences from black and doom metal bands like Carcass and Sleep, using vintage equipment to create a fresh sound. His unique approach involves sending experimental drones to collaborators without specific instructions, resulting in organically evolving tracks.
The album features musicians like drummer Reuben Gingrich, harpist Mikaela Davis, and saxophonists Sam Que and Jarad Steiner. Key tracks include "Action at a Distance," which blends new age drones with synths and saxophones; "Crying in the Trees," combining piano, bells, harp, and doomy guitar; "God Won't Speak," starting with Indian percussion samples and building into a rich tapestry of sounds; and "No Muscle No Memory," featuring harmonic patterns with saxophone solos and intense guitar riffs.
