Guerre - Darker My Love

One particular genre or style of music that has caught my ear over the last year is the loosely defined ambient electronic pop or lo-fi electro, call the genre what you will, some of the music falling under this branch is wondrous. From acts such as James Blake, The Weeknd and Animal Collective, these easy to listen artists are really making an impression on the music scene at the moment. I recently stumbled over Aussie artists Guerre and his bandcamp page for his new album Darker My Love. The album is offered as a pay-what-you-want price, with the option to listen to every song in full before you make any download.

Guerre, is a really impressive artist, producing beautiful, ambient songs over the last year. He has recently launched his own record label, suitably named Yes Please, with his first release being his own album in June of this year. Every song off this album is a sweet sweet, electronic delight, blending his soothing voice perfectly with organic sounding synths. His minimal approach to the songs off of the new album is really refreshing, and it helps him create the perfect atmosphere in each of his songs. Take a listen to the album below then be sure to grab his album, it's definitely worth your time!
