We’ve been writing about Sonarpilot<\/a> for a while now, the artist whose real name is Michael Moppert. With The Mirage Project, which he started in Spring 2020, he’s crafted six fractal films, using bespoke soundtracks, designed to appear monthly. Crazy to think that December is just around the corner, and with it comes the final two instalments, ‘Cathedral’, and ‘The Last Machine’.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

‘Cathedral’ was released just a few weeks ago, and is the second to last instalment in the series. It lives up to the same promise as describe by Indie Pulse, who, when writing about previous releases, ‘CodeX’, and ‘Imperium’, that Sonarpilot is “an artist who can be counted on for a spellbinding listen”. With warm synths that longingly drone, layered one upon the other, Sonarpilot builds a world which reaches to the skies. The clip mirrors this sound, as the forms stretch heaven-ward, only to slowly disintegrate when the reach what looks like our own atmosphere. Speaking of the clip, Sonarpilot says,<\/p>\n

“This mirage is about nature and technology. Today, technology is becoming more and more our religion, the promise in which we put our faith. And it’s true, technology has changed our lives fundamentally and will continue to do so. But in the end, nature will still be more magnificent and enigmatic than anything we will ever be able to create.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
