Moljebka Pvlse are an experimental music group from Stockholm, Sweden, featuring Hara Alonso (piano), Isabel Fogelklou (Harp), Mathias Josefson (Electronics) and Kris Kuldkepp (Bass Guitars).  They work with both acoustic and electronic instruments, as well as field recordings and found sounds, to create dark and haunting minimalist soundscapes. The band have released over a dozen albums on a variety of different labels; this is their third full-length album release for Zoharum Records. 

An Expression of a Poetry That Was Lost is comprised of two epic length tracks, Memories and Dreams. Each track clocks in at over 22 minutes long. "Memories" is up first and leads us firmly into dark ambient territory, electronic drones mix with acoustic instruments and found sounds to create a layered sound that oozes with a sense of foreboding. Fragments of cold electronica poke through in places, and the layers drift in and out like waves on the ocean. Sometimes it feels very minimal, and at other times there’s a lot going on, but it always feels familiar, almost like it’s made up from old memories, which seems appropriate given the song title. There is also a certain cold melancholy that permeates the track; it’s always there, yet you never get the feeling that things are hopeless. "Dreams" on the other hand, feels slightly more ethereal, the tinkling piano mixes with the electronic drones to create something that feels more elegant and graceful, like the most fragile gossamer wings. 

Overall, An Expression of a Poetry That Was Lost is a beautiful album, featuring two epic drone tracks that create a dark and melancholy work of abstract art. Something that feels not only familiar but somehow lost or forgotten. The acoustic and electronic instruments meld perfectly to create something that transcends being described as dark ambient. There is a warmth that filters throughout the whole album from the acoustic instruments that should seem like a juxtaposition to the coldness of the electronica, but the two work in perfect unison. If you enjoy albums of abstract dark ambient music then you will find plenty to love here.
