Cloud Tangle is the solo project of multi-instrumentalist Amber Ramsay, which combines video art and music to evoke a mood equally devastating and beautiful. The project formed in late 2014 and founded it's relevance in 2016 through live shows in Brisbane. Stemming from bedroom focused production and minimalistic instrumentation, the project forms its own unique sound that falls into a lo-fi dream pop genre. Ethereal vocals soar above silky guitar melodies, dragging you ever downward into a subdued, grimly content atmosphere. The sonic elements draw on timelessness and rawness, while each song's context stems from a much deeper concept provoked by dark human emotion. Cloud Tangle formed a following through regularly released, free to download tracks, which were followed by debut release POCKET in 2017. Since then, many of these songs have spread to many corners of the internet in many countries around the globe. This project is one of constant progression and reflection in which to create the ultimate live delivery of both music and art as one. POCKET is a deeply conceptual record made up of 4 diverse tracks, each moulded together to convey the essence of dark emotions. The A-side is the feature of the EP, which creates an experience of timelessness and sonic complexity. The B-side, exclusive to the physical cassette, carries out an instrumentally focused extension of the concept and continues on the rich, melancholic sounds of guitar and organ, which are the musical cornerstones of the record. The bedroom production adds a sense of rawness and fragility that contrasts with the detail found in each layer of the songs. The songs were written over a year, whilst still developing as an artist. A lot of the sounds in the songs remain untouched from when they were first written and played in the bedroom, and some songs even have phone recordings and original samples embedded into the layers of instruments from loops or idea development. Although the songs vary in intensity and complexity, they are strung together and follow similar emotions. Most of these are stories or experiences that are very commonly unwanted human emotions. The sense of lightness and detail in the tracks provides a sense of balance from the dark, overwhelming backgrounds. An important part to the structuring of the songs is the extensive use of layering and texture. The songs provide the ability to hide certain aspects or elements upon first consumption which is something quite esteeming to the listener.
