Mloski is a solo project of Anton Litovchenko, talented bulgarian musician with a nice feel for ambient sound, currently residing in the city of Varna (by the way, visited and adored by my mother).
Most part of the album "Study Of Flying" Anton presented at the ambient festival in Sofia accompanied by a fellow project Res. The music was supposed to score a movie on the screen, yet some say film wasn't adequate enough for the music and preferred to close their eyes. Now the album is published on a promising bulgarian label Mahorka.
There's no doubt Mloski's music is really good as soundtrack. Even with the first sounds of individual you can easily imagine slow dynamic of something grotesque and cold, beautifully growing. Maybe a crystal gaining its shape and shining with its cold white and blue lights. Album is soft and relaxing, yet there are some disturbances involved in the picture, like on a track naturalist - short piano chords are dubbed by harsch high synth noises, adding some king of an action to the music.
One of the most representative opuses here is a title track, study of flying, drawing a soundscape of an empty space developing, far from anyone's eyes. As I said earlier, Mloski has a good feel for sound and how imaginary environments could sound, and even that he's not playing much music as such, melody exists in his sound on its own, like there is music in a frozen sea or icicles. You can hear music in blowing of the wind or breaking waves, in all sonic nature of Mloski's music.
What is also good in the album is that it has a strong feeling of awakening and blooming, which means that Mloski is musically on his start. This work is absolutely in traditions of european ambient music and definitely makes a listener to wait for Mloski's next release which is soon to be out on Otium.
