Brim Liski ‘The Repetitions EP’

[Release pageBrim Liski (a collaboration between A Shoreline Dream, Cacheflowe and Jap Jap) unearths The Repetitions; a softened collection of inspiring electronic shoegaze—emotive and rhythmic at its core. Yielding a flow similar to the classic sounds of Ulrich Schnauss, Four Tet and even Christian Kleine, Brim Liski dusts off the nostalgia and reveals a hidden gem filled with instrumental viscosity. Symphonies of digital panoramas are in full swing here, and Brim Liski evolves their unique sound which is fully consuming and utterly contagious. “Things Were Different” emanates a hip-hop flutter of beats and classical layers of tranquility—a great opening that eases the listener into The Repetitions‘ sonic detail. “Plume,” while transcending time with its ebb and flow of lively percussion and submerged vocal bursts—akin to the Manchester sound—simply pushes forward with an air of positivity and creates a lasting impression worth continual replay. The title track takes a more relaxed approach and emits a warmth within its guitar plucks and rugged percussion. The shining light of the pack comes in the form of “Supermassive,” a mind and hearth drenching anthem that effectively etches itself in the memory banks. Reminiscent of Bitcrush, Brim Liski evolves the strands of lyrics in a continuous wave of chorus and subdued horns and grows into a powerful beauty of a track. “Grey Skies” is the culmination, again, of Four Tet and Syntax merging into a unified smorgasbord of lively, open-end orchestration of organic and digitized realms of pure music production. Sean Byrd takes “Plume” into a pseudo-dubstep arena filled with twisted beats and bass coherently bouncing off of each other. Cacheflowe takes the crowning achievement of “Supermassive” and drips it into chopped 8-bit water of crunched electro-pop, glitch and mechanical funk. Overall, The Repetitions is a welcomed evolution of post and future soundscapes wrapped in a sheet of synthesized chemicals and floating blips that float gracefully in a maze of blurry emotions.

The Repetitions is available on Plastic Sound Supply. [Release page]
