Of Those Who Know – Staring at the Winter Sky: Ambient Steel Guitar with Ethereal Layers – Frequency State

Staring at the Winter Sky by Of Those Who Know offers a rich, atmospheric experience led by reverb-drenched steel guitar and slowly evolving ambient textures. The track opens with warm tonal washes, gradually introducing layers that create a sense of depth and space. As the steel guitar melody comes into focus, it brings with it a haunting, almost celestial quality.

The piece blends ambient soundscapes with post-rock sensibilities, drawing on influences from classical romanticism to artists like Hammock and Explosions in the Sky. Strings and subtle harmonic shifts keep the track in motion, while the consistent use of delay and reverb contributes to its immersive quality.

Composed by Nashville-based artist David Curtis, this solo project—Of Those Who Know—focuses on texture, harmony, and emotional resonance. It’s music built for introspective moments, offering a calm yet expressive listening experience.
