Another Ens song I’d queued up for writing about, but time has been limited and so it is only a few minutes ago in which I was able to get around to doing so.
I think I was looking for imagery here but I ended up more describing what was happening. I didn’t quite try to cover as much as possible here and just focus on some parts and it kind of worked.
Ens’ “All in the Mood” is from Warp + Weft.
I hope you enjoy.

Percussion rolls and crashes as it echoes outward. Soon it seems that bass splays across the percussion as something in the background descends. There is an organisation here but it sounds like an organised disorganisation.
A sound beeps and disappears at points as that descending gets louder, and something else echoes out, much higher than everything else. It is not lofty but it is above all.
The percussion stops, leaving focus on everything else for a few moments. Eventually more percussive sound comes in, seemingly cycling as a brief snippet whilst a drone appears underneath. Bass plays against and alongside this new percussion and other sounds appear here and there and the space remains with an oddness, but it is certain. It seems more organised now and remains as such when the main percussive strikes return to crash and roll and echo outward.
All continues onward with a spaced fullness. All continue onward, steady until it is time to pull away, leaving the percussion to close as the song ends.
