Prolific Ambient Producer Soular Order Releases His Stunning New Single "Beholder"

Ambient Mancunian musician Soular Order has released his new single “Beholder”. He has featured numerous times on tastemaker Youtube channels Mr Suicide Sheep, Ambient, Fluidified and MOR Network, with his remix of Hans Zimmer’s “Time” racking up over 3 million views. He has garnered 2.2 million Soundcloud and Spotify plays and has racked up a total of over 5.5 million Youtube views to date, with support from tastemaker Youtube channels Ambient and Fluidified.

Soular Order has a diverse range of influences including Aphex Twin, David Bowie, William Basinski and Tycho, leading to a unique sound comparable to Brian Eno, Boards of Canada and Sigur Rós. The result is a breathy ambience that embraces the experimental and rejects the expected norms. The elegiac quality creates a vividness that pulls the listener forwards, encouraging them to continue the journey with the musician.

The single is a congruous balance of celestial harmonies, creating the space for the listener to enter a meditative state while still maintaining an intrigue. One can almost smell the crisp autumn air of an evening not quite cold enough for a jacket and yet still creates a prickle on exposed skin. The use of wood instruments paired with the piano is an old combination able to give a fresh new sound to the track as the slow build assure the listener to what they are hearing. It is the perfect end track - allowing the listener time to process the impressions of the previous singles that came before it.

Speaking of the track he comments: "Beholder is an ambient piece about self-reflection. It was written over the course of a few days, and was what actually started the whole EP process.”
