Seefeel Redefines Ambient Experimentation with ‘Squared Roots’

Seefeel’s Squared Roots is a seven-track mini-album released on December 4, 2024, by Warp Records. The album comprises material from the same recording sessions as their earlier 2024 release, Everything Squared, which marked the band’s return after a 13-year hiatus. Squared Roots is described as a more ambient and dub-infused complement to Everything Squared, featuring reworked versions of tracks that emphasize atmospheric soundscapes and experimental structures. The album is available digitally and as a limited edition CD.

The album opens with “So Shall You Be,” setting a contemplative tone that flows into the rhythmic “Tail Trails.” “As X Is Y” stands out with its expansive seven-minute journey through evolving textures. “Touchless Tones” and “Nerve Chasms” delve into abstract soundscapes, while “Unfurled” and “Chaos Weary” conclude the album with a blend of ambient and experimental elements.

Squared Roots has been well-received, with critics noting its intricate sound design and the seamless integration of ambient and dub influences. The album showcases Seefeel’s ability to evolve their sound while maintaining the experimental edge that has defined their music.

For those interested in exploring Squared Roots, the album is available for streaming on platforms like Apple Music and for purchase on Bandcamp. The limited edition CD can be ordered through Warp Records’ official store.
