Memory Scale’s Moment of Inertia offers a reflective, textured ambient journey, blending repetitive synth tones with rising string-like textures and delicate melodies. The track opens with a consistent pulse, gradually evolving as layered synths introduce a riff-like motif, adding subtle pace while maintaining its introspective mood. The result is a meditative piece that feels both engaging and contemplative.
Featured on the forthcoming Fauna compilation, Moment of Inertia draws on influences reminiscent of Brian Eno and Tortoise, creating an atmospheric soundscape that pairs perfectly with the album’s focus on humanity’s interconnectedness with the natural world. Fauna, curated by Franck Zaragoza (Ocoeur), serves as both a musical project and a call to action, highlighting the importance of animal rights and environmental consciousness.
Memory Scale, the project of French composer Arnaud Castagné, crafts a unique blend of ambient and electronica with a cinematic edge. Known for creating hybrid, contemplative pop, Castagné’s work often evokes imagery and emotion, as is evident in Moment of Inertia.
Fauna releases on December 10th, International Animal Rights Day, with proceeds benefiting the French animal rights organization L214. This compilation is a reminder of the impact of our choices and a tribute to the shared world we inhabit with all living creatures.
