Summer Effect - Reverie

Summer Effect is a post-rock band from Indonesia which was formed in early 2012. Ibo (drums, keys) is the founder. At the end of 2011, he met Aroel (guitar, keys), and since then they have been playing as an instrumental band which blends shoegaze, ambient and post-rock.

Reverie is their fourth album. In this album, they produced an extraordinary mixture of cinematic music, post-rock and ambient, resulting in a very rich work. Summer Effect created a beautiful chaotic album with heavy guitar sounds, soft and delicate piano, pads and plentiful strings sections. They hope it is going to give a positive message to the listeners. All the positive words come from the instrumental music, they say. ”Listen carefully to hear these words. They are not there. There are no actual words. But feel the music and you will hear them”.

Nearly all the songs were composed on a piano and by using pad sounds. Then the musicians added beat drums, bass, and guitar as well as a few sound effects to enhance nuances on each track based on their titles. Summer Effect are inviting people who like shoegaze, ambient and post-rock - which produce certain vibrations of atmosphere - to listen Reverie. This is a cinematic guitar album with piano, strings and drums.

Summer Effect - Afterlife

Summer Effect is a post-rock band from Indonesia which was formed in early 2012. Ibo (drums, keys) is the founder. At the end of 2011, he met Aroel (guitar, keys), and since then they have been playing as an instrumental band which blends shoegaze, ambient and post-rock.

The band started as a wish to create new atmosphere; reflecting their tastes in music and other forms of art. They create their compositions with simple chord progression bars, wrapped with a pounding drum beats, harmonized guitar tones, a bit of distortion. Then the songs get slowly begin to evolve to shoegaze, ambient and post-rock to produce certain vibrations of atmosphere.

Afterlife is the third album from Summer Effect which contains 10 instrumental post-rock, progressive songs. In this album they tried to play tones with fractional composition of different time signatures. Simple and unexpected chord progression was created to produce a unique dynamic, stomping, dark vibe, like what is being experienced on the track Envoy, Clouded Minds or Don’t Let Me Disappear. They are assisted by a musician named 'Erdi David' (Dwaninungka), which fills the bass on the song Beating Heart & Everything Seems Different. Also, the drums sounds warmer than their previous albums.

Summer Effect comes with their third record, inviting people who like shoegaze, ambient and post-rock to produce certain vibrations of atmosphere to listen "After Life".

Summer Effect - Nothing But Hope

Summer Effect is a post-rock band from Indonesia which was formed in early 2012. Ibo (drums, keys) is the founder. At the end of 2011, he met Aroel (guitar, keys), and since then they have been playing as an instrumental band which blends shoe-gaze, ambient and post-rock.

They create their compositions with simple chord progression bars, wrapped with a pounding drum beats, harmonized guitar tones, a bit of distortion. Then the songs get slowly begin to evolve to shoe-gaze, ambient and post-rock to produce certain vibrations of atmosphere. Their label debut “Starting Over” was released in September 2014 and band got its name out of their country. Soon after they started on their next recording.

The new album “Nothing But Hope” has interesting, unique and colorful nuance in each of its song. It has a comfortable sound between instrumental, rock, post-rock, alternative, experimental. Ibo says “We maintain the minimalism and dynamic of our musical nuance. It has more acoustic elements combined with electric guitar harmonies, distortion, keyboard, as well as several other instruments.”

These instruments sometimes get deeper as in the song “Nothing’s Ever Good Enough For You” and sometime they follow more energetic approach. It seems that band members can’t wait to release their new work. Again let’s wait for the response from the fans.
