The Murmurous Playground is a Portuguese collective/community, a cluster of musicians, visual and sound artists that share a workplace/studio, unleashing experimental works of every kind, with no aim and without boundaries.
Their debut work evolved as an ambiental and experimental album, "Somber Fuss Experiments" (2018). This album offers manipulated acoustic guitars, extremely reverberated spaces, tape effects, drone tibetan cup and other vibrating instruments, oscillation with synths, odd pianos, field recording soundscapes, loops and noises.
In addition to the original "Somber Fuss Experiments" album, "Pins" and "Décoller" were added as bonus tracks.
