Norwegian audio/visual artist Sanirams invites listeners on a captivating journey with her latest EP, “Tides of Time.” The opening track, “Waves of Sound (Birds in the Wall),” sets the stage for an immersive experience that blends folk songwriting with dream-pop soundscapes, all captured within the nostalgic embrace of analog 4-track recording.

With a sound reminiscent of 60s and 70s psychedelic folk, Sanirams creates a warm and embracing sonic landscape that invites listeners to immerse themselves fully. The dreamy textures and lush harmonies transport listeners to a place where time seems to stand still, allowing them to get lost in the waves of sound.
Despite the simplicity of the recording setup, Sanirams demonstrates a mastery of her craft, weaving together intricate layers of instrumentation to create a rich and immersive sonic tapestry. Each element, from the ethereal vocals to the atmospheric guitar, contributes to the overall mood of the track, culminating in a mesmerizing listening experience.
As “Waves of Sound (Birds in the Wall)” unfolds, it becomes clear that Sanirams is not simply creating music; she is crafting entire worlds within each song.
