Art Of Receiving is a twelve-minute trip into soothingly tunnelling, if lightly gritty ANW from Poland’s Olion. This is a self-released digital single/ EP.

For the cover artwork, we get a rather abstract/ murky painting- to my eyes, it looks like a sharp shifting bear-like creature, ala John Carpenter's The Thing. The release can be found here.

The single self-titled track runs at the twelve-minute and twenty-second mark. The ‘wall’ is built around a constant/ rapid tone which has elements of tunnelling, billowing and rolling roast in its make-up. Around this, there’s a constant gritty rattle. The ‘wall’ feels largely fairly comfy/cosy, though there are hints here and there of more seared tension, and lightly brooding unease.

Olion has been creating wall-craft since 2021, and it has always put out consistent/ decent work. And that’s exactly what Art Of Receiving is.
