Blue States - Restless Spheres (LP)

Blue States’ Restless Spheres, released in 2016, is a lush, atmospheric album that marks a compelling evolution in Andy Dragazis’ musical journey. Known for his cinematic approach to electronic music, Dragazis delves deeper into experimental territory here, blending ambient textures, downtempo beats and moody instrumentation.

The result is an album that feels introspective yet expansive, capturing a delicate balance between melancholy and hope. Opening with Alight Here, the album sets a dreamlike tone with its ethereal soundscape and subtle, pulsing rhythm.

Lyrically sparse, Restless Spheres focuses on mood and atmosphere, allowing the music to tell its own story. The interplay between organic and synthetic elements is particularly striking, giving the album a timeless yet contemporary feel.

Restless Spheres is a testament to Blue States’ evolution as a project, showcasing Andy Dragazis’ ability to create music that is both cinematic and deeply personal. It’s an album that invites listeners to lose themselves in its immersive soundscapes, offering a journey that is as introspective as it is expansive.
