{"product_id":"rival-consoles-persona","title":"Rival Consoles - Persona","description":"Persona takes its name and some of its ideas from Ingmar Bergman's 1966 film of the same title, Ryan Lee West using the record to sit with the gap between how we see ourselves and how we're seen by everyone else. It's noticeably less dancefloor-facing than his other albums, built from crisp snares, ebbing synth chords and melodies that sound played rather than programmed, most tracks starting quiet and building with real patience.\n\nSeveral critics called it his best record on release, and it's easy to hear why — it's the album where the emotional and the technical sides of his music finally feel like the same thing. Each track rewards repeated listening, revealing new emotional textures and compositional details the more you sit with it. This is electronic music that feels genuinely human.\n\nFFO: Jon Hopkins, Nils Frahm, Max Cooper","brand":"Erased Tapes","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":62023673315596,"sku":"12B-00235","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/12-bar.com\/products\/rival-consoles-persona","provider":"12 Bar Music and Social","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
