Brightblack Morning Light's brand of ambient pop is akin to the glorioles in a photograph of the sun: It's full of arching, radiant, golden light. On tracks such as "Hologram Buffalo," from last year's Motion to Rejoin, Rachel Hughes' Fender Rhodes piano and Nathan Shineywater's Silvertone guitar exchange vivid, incandescent leads. The band juiced its studio with solar power to record Motion; those rays helped Brightblack's psychedelia hypnotize with subtle touches (flute, trombone, clarinet) that conflate with heavy leads to create glassy-eyed soundscapes.
