RAVEL’S BOLERO
Road to Release
We regularly start our studio sessions watching or listening to inspiring YouTube-clips. This often helps to spark an idea on which we then build a track. The idea for Shelter Me (the main track for our first EP), was sparked by watching this meticulous explanation of the Bolero, Ravel’s 17 minute masterpiece. It taught us a lot about building tension. More importantly, it showed us that not all the instruments have to be in perfect harmony with one other. Sometimes it’s the dissonants that give the music its true beauty.
