The Black Dog continue the trajectory of Loud Ambient with Loud Ambient 2, revisiting the colourfield concepts that defined the first volume while re-engaging their drum machines with renewed purpose. Drawing inspiration from the work of Mark Rothko and Josef Albers, the trio translate visual minimalism into shifting electronic form, where tone, texture and rhythm move in layered gradients.
Returning to familiar ground proves liberating. With a clear sense of what a ‘Loud Ambient’ track can be, the process flows quickly and instinctively. The result is a set shaped by momentum and movement: looping synth figures, pulsing drum patterns and elastic arrangements that balance abstraction with physical drive.
Fifty newly created artworks accompany the record, serving as practical creative prompts rather than decoration. That interplay between sound and colour informs the music’s structure, encouraging immediacy and focus.
Loaded with drum machines and synthesizers, The Black Dog craft music rooted in repetition and subtle variation — club-ready, immersive and guided by instinct. Loud Ambient 2 deepens the project’s visual and sonic language while keeping its eyes firmly on the dance floor.
