A year and a week after the release of Daniel Bohn’s powerful album “The Black and White Sea”, the remixed version has been released. The ten tracks have undergone the masterful skills of MetalKrypt which give the original piece from August 2020 even more power. For over an hour multi-instrumentalist Daniel Bohn and bass player Travis Tompkin provide their audience with stunning soundscapes and thrilling sonic narratives.

The atmospheric introduction ‘Intrusive Thoughts’ is followed by nine dark and heavy tracks that last between three and thirteen minutes each. The songs are defined by impressive songwriting structures and powerful arcs of suspense. Take ‘The Vision’ for example that starts as an acoustic Americana-like ballad, soaked by gorgeous harmonies and soulful vocals, until its fading last notes lead into the dark and massive opening of ‘Progressional Feelings’. Daniel Bohn artistically combines the sophisticated buoyance of Progressive Metal with the harsh and atmospheric broadside of Post Rock, and the gloomy mood of Alternative Rock. Thus, the remixed version of “The Black and White Sea” is an impressive album, soulful and brutal likewise, and the long tracks especially are coined by thrilling narratives.

 Music from every post will stay in the MangoRotation playlist for 14 days.
