Suntub is the second full length album from ML Buch, a double record of 15 pieces by the Danish composer and producer, entering further into the realm of electric guitars and layered vocals along with exploring new instrumental expressions.
Since 2021, ML Buch has released windows into Suntub in the form of Fleshless hand (2021) and Somewhere / High speed calm air tonight (2022). Suntub unfolds this world in full with its tall skies, river mouths and singing tracks. With an offset in open tunings on a 7-string Stratocaster, slide and fretless tablet guitars and deep-sampled virtual guitars, the album draws up narratives and locations in a distant time. Props like puddles, well buckets, bone barrels and flesh rags live in these scenes, suspended in air, drifting about, climbing stairs and ladders, all given life through guitar sensibilities and visceral vocals.
Like ML Buch's overall practice, Suntub is both utterly precise and intuitively fluid. Vocal and instrumental pieces counterbalance, giving the album its own unique pace. Some motives are disjointed, others flaring, oddly familiar and highly personal. It holds distractions and temperament with the same intensity, perhaps a relic of the artist's deep engagement with the record, which was initiated five years ago and has since then been written, recorded, produced and mixed by ML Buch herself.
