Modern Apartments is Ryan Ambridge, the musician and producer best known for his work with dark synth projects Linea Aspera and Lust Pattern. While both of those outlets lean towards the greyscale and robotic, Ambridge wanted to explore a more colorful palette with Modern Apartments, a livelier, looser sound. The medium of film plays a major role here; Ambridge works as a projectionist, screening archival prints of 35mm and 16mm films, and the textures and\u003cbr\u003etemporality of the medium fed directly into the Modern Apartments aesthetic. But it isn’t all blurry edges and fuzzy optimism on Light on Water. Says Ambridge, “Regular beats from old rhythm boxes and the sharp angles of post-punk found their way in. The contrasting imagery from those old film prints, of dense cities and open countryside, is reflected back in the dialog between looser sounds and rigid stylistic choices.” This tension shines through on tracks like album opener “Completely,” which pairs the icy minimalism of John Foxx with the meandering grooves of Cluster, or the eponymous “Light on Water” which leans even further into the sun-bleached vibes of Roedelius. Artwork for this record was designed by Eloise Shir-Juen Leigh. Light on Water is perfect latesummer listening, as the last gasps of seasonal radiance fade into autumnal splendor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1 Completely\u003cbr\u003e2 Pedestrian\u003cbr\u003e3 Dome\u003cbr\u003e4 Light on Water\u003cbr\u003e5 Automatic\u003cbr\u003e6 Steady Flashing\u003cbr\u003e7 Gymnast\u003cbr\u003e8 Slow Turn\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Cargo","offers":[{"title":"LP Black - DE362LP","offer_id":56392028914043,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0271\/3020\/0134\/files\/ModernApartments-LightonWater.jpg?v=1787662051","url":"https:\/\/www.mixeduprecords.com\/products\/modern-apartments-light-on-water","provider":"Mixed Up Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
