June or July, the project of Jose Jünemann operating between Chile and Barcelona, presents eight tracks of slow-moving electronic music built on layers of drone, dub delay and sparse rhythmic elements. The album favors long sustains and gradual textural shifts over conventional song structures. Tracks like "Disappointed by Technology" and "Lost in the Woods" use minimal percussion, deep bass tones and reverb-treated synthesizers to create expansive spaces. Two pieces titled "An Observation" bookend the album's midsection, the first featuring J. Bliss, both stretching ambient passages across several minutes. The closing track covers A. Diane, filtered through the same patient approach that defines the rest of the record.
Released on Pueblo Nuevo, a label based in Chile, Vol. 2 sits within a tradition of electronic music that prioritizes atmosphere and immersion over immediate hooks. The production aesthetic recalls dub techno's use of echo and space, though the tempos often drop below dance floor utility. The psychedelic tag fits the way sounds blur and overlap, creating a sense of depth that rewards close listening on capable systems.
This album serves listeners who prefer electronic music that unfolds slowly and rewards patience. Those drawn to ambient and drone work that retains a rhythmic pulse, however faint, will find Vol. 2 occupies a useful middle ground between pure atmosphere and structured composition.
