Critic Badge - Album Review: Not all Those Who Wander Are Lost, Dave Brons

Not All Those Who Wander Are Lost - Dave Brons


I first heard about Dave Brons' music online, possibly Instagram. There was an offer to download four free tracks and I took advantage. I adored them and instantly had to get the album.
The music is inspired by Tolkien and so really has an other worldly feel. Straight away I feel like I'm walking through a forest or experiencing magic.
My favourite track is Awakened by Starlight (track 4). It has a light and airy quality and feels like the perfect sort of track to meditate to or, at the very least, sit and chill to.
There's a lot of soft, almost childlike voices taking you on a journey throughout the tracks, giving the album a storyline.
Another track I like is The Riders of Rohan (track 9) which feels like a complete opposite of Starlight. It's deeper and faster and, as the title might suggest, you feel like you're participating in a fast paced, urgent horse ride.
I can't really say there's anything I particularly dislike about the album, just tracks I like more than others. I definitely would, and already have, recommended it to others and will continue to as well, hence the link at the top!
Happy listening!
