Pausal

Pausal is an immersive ambient music duo known for crafting deeply atmospheric soundscapes. The group consists of Alex Smalley and Simon Bainton, who began their collaborative work in the late 2000s. Their approach to music is a delicate blend of electronic and organic sounds, often incorporating field recordings, acoustic instruments, and a sophisticated use of digital processing. This results in expansive, textural compositions that invite listeners into a contemplative, meditative state.

Over the years, Pausal has built a substantial discography that showcases their evolving sound, with notable releases like "Melatonia," "Volume Flow," and "Avifaunal." Each album presents a unique thematic exploration, from the ornithological inspirations of "Avifaunal" to the introspective depths of "Melatonia." Their work is characterized by a meticulous attention to detail, where every sound contributes to the overall emotional and atmospheric journey. The duo has consistently received acclaim for their ability to balance experimental sound design with accessible, emotive undertones, making their music a compelling experience for both seasoned ambient listeners and newcomers to the genre.
