Croydon, UK three-piece RAMESES III have been busy proving to the wider world that there's more to their hometown than dubstep with their deep and original take on ambient music. In that time, the band has notched up a number of releases for Important Records, Digitalis and Type, but it is with this latest opus that they truly leave their mark on the faded musical landscape. I Could Not Love You More is a record that reframes their sound, taking their drifting ambience and pastoral folk and sharpening it at every opportunity. You can hear echoes of Takoma in their delicate acoustic guitar playing, shadows of early 4AD in the shimmering drones, and all this is wrapped up in an Eno-esque sense of restraint. It sounds almost as if the pieces were written for the mid-20th century, with sounds coming from electric pianos, Mellotrons and guitars rather than heavy electronic processes.
