Orcas
“Electro-acoustic composers Thomas Meluch (aka Benoît Pioulard) and Rafael Anton Irisarri strike a balance between lyric-driven emotional appeals and aloof abstractions on this collection of nocturnal ambient pop.”
Yearling
“On his own, Thomas Meluch records cloudy electro-acoustic songs as Benoît Pioulard that sound hand-cobbled, while Rafael Anton Irisarri drapes brooding ostinatos with dusky delay and reverb. Their second album as Orcas retains the debut's vast scale, glacial pace, and visual splendor, while bringing a human presence closer to the surface.”
