Devout Cocoa is a Drone Music studio alias that treats noise softly. Pink and brown noise, the gentle hiss of tape and the rustle of processed paper and fabric are shaped with filters into warm, rounded beds, over which faint tonal drones appear and disappear.
The aim is texture rather than aggression: the noise works like a blanket, masking the outside world and slowly revealing the tones within it. The colour is dark, earthy and comforting. The pieces are well suited to concentration or sleep, played quietly over long periods.
