Journeying Towards Infinity: "All Things Be Equal" by Sonic Boom

In the abyss of sound, between shades of minimalism and explosions of sonic visions, lies "All Things Be Equal", Sonic Boom's second solo journey. In this audio odyssey, the legacy of sound masters blends with the artist's unique vision, transporting the listener through mental landscapes as vast as they are mysterious.

Sonic Boom, devoted custodian of the maxim "minimal is maximal", erects a sonic altar for his inspirational deities: the legendary Suicide and the visionary La Monte Young. However, the cosmic influence of Kraftwerk that permeates the depths of this record cannot be ignored. It is as if minimalism itself is embodied in his music, a life philosophy intertwined with electric cables and circuits.

"All Things Be Equal" is not just an album, but a meditation on nature and mortality itself, explored through a prism of electric synthesizers and echoes of the glorious past of Spacemen 3. Sonic Boom shares his philosophy with mastery, transforming abstract thoughts into tangible vibrations.

The album also reflects Sonic Boom's enduring commitment in the field of production, with previous works alongside iconic names such as Beach House and Panda Bear. However, it is his mixing enchantment with MGMT that shines in this work, adding unfathomable depth to the already intricate sonic fabric.

Some may find certain tracks to linger longer than necessary, but in reality, they are an essential part of the journey. "All Things Be Equal" is an immersive experience, where time itself dissolves and one loses themselves among the winding textures of Sonic Boom's mind.

The sonic address of this second chapter does not waver from its predecessor, remaining firm on the foundations of fascinating and visionary atmospheres. However, a clear evolution emerges: a richer range of sounds, a universe of layered vibrations extending to infinity, with meticulous attention to every detail.

In conclusion, "All Things Be Equal" is a journey into the unknown, an immersion into the depths of Sonic Boom's mind. It is an album that not only reaffirms his mastery in the world of experimental music but also opens doors to new frontiers of sonic experience. For anyone willing to be carried away, this record offers a passage towards infinity. Available on Bandcamp: https://sonicboomspacemen3.bandcamp.com/album/all-things-being-equal-3.
