Dance In The Moonlight / Moon Valley

by Kael Hope

Released June 14, 2017

Dance In The Moonlight / Moon Valley is a small two-piece suite from Kael Hope - a pair of nocturnal compositions that sit somewhere between downtempo electronica and quiet film score. The EP gives each track twice: once in its main version, once as a companion read.

The EP

Both tracks are built around the same nighttime palette - soft synth pads, patient pulses, melodic lines that take their time to arrive and leave even more space when they go. Dance In The Moonlight leans into a gentle rhythmic warmth; Moon Valley opens it up into something more atmospheric, almost cinematic. Together they form a small suite about the same hour of night seen from two different windows.

The story

This is one of the moments in the Kael Hope catalogue where the pure-instrumental approach reveals exactly what it's good at: setting a mood that doesn't need explaining. There's no storyline, no programmatic content - just two short pieces that ask the listener to sit somewhere quiet for nine minutes and let the night happen.
