Description
The second full-length album from Danish composer/producer ML Buch. This double album unfolds an experimental soundscape using open tunings on a 7-string Stratocaster, slide guitar, and fretless tablet guitar.
The 15 tracks weave together scenes and stories from a distant time. Images such as puddles, well buckets, bone barrels, and rags of meat are brought to life through the sensibilities of the guitar and visceral vocals. The fusion of sampling and analog instruments creates a unique sense of suspension and physicality.
ML Buch is a Copenhagen-based artist who pursues a unique musical language based on electric guitar and vocals. The instrumental expression, further evolved from the previous work, is reproduced with a texture that seems to rise from the grooves of vinyl.

*Gatefold Sleeve - Double LP**
‘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.
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.
