Explore the various forms of love with Eric Ludinart’s latest EP Amours. Released before Valentines’ Day on Jan 23, each track lets you soak in the various ways to give and receive love and maintain the connection.
Amours opens with “Philia,” a warm and evolving composition that envelopes you in multiplying layers of platonic love. As the layers of sound multiply, we are drawn into a sonic embrace that mirrors the richness of genuine companionship.
“Philautia,” the second track, takes a more introspective turn with the relationship we have with ourselves. Ludinart’s pulsating beats, shooting like bullets alongside swelling melodies, convey the delicate balance between self-neglect, self-care and self-obsession and reflect the internal struggles inherent in nurturing a healthy relationship with oneself.
“Pragma,” the third track, embodies the enduring nature of mature love. With mechanical synths and calculated ascensions, Ludinart captures the steadfast commitment and mutual understanding that underpin long-term partnerships.
Amours concludes with “Storge,” a powerful exploration of familial love and connection. Clocking in at over 12 minutes, the track unfolds like a slow-burning symphony of emotions, punctuated by tension and tenderness. Ludinart’s use of grave and suspenseful quivering synths, coupled with stomping beats, captures the love that runs in the veins despite the friction coming through.
Throughout Amours, Ludinart demonstrates a deep understanding of the nuances of love, which he executes perfectly with his knowledge of sound therapy and spirituality. Listen to all the forms of Amours in different settings to appreciate all kinds of love and remind yourself that you are loved.
