Dataline :: Be There (Detroit Underground)

Glitchy tones, low-end drifting, and a penchant for developed harmonies, Dataline dips into brittle techno hues, and sparkling acid undertones—sometimes washed down with evocative vocal stretches.

Dataline (currently residing in Sweden) continues to massage the ears with delicate, flowing, electrical waves of energy. Previous releases (with Noorden) delved into similar terrain, marked by melodic grooves, soft pads, and whimsical rhythms, Be There is just as fragrant. Glitchy tones, low-end drifting, and a penchant for developed harmonies, Dataline dips into brittle techno hues, and sparkling acid undertones—sometimes washed down with evocative vocal stretches. A chilled, bustling, and upbeat electronic album from a skilled audio craftsman that is at once cohesively flowing and abstractly beautiful. Recommended for fans of Plaid, Boulderdash and Cuttooth—a return of precision IDM introspection of yesteryear.

Be There is available on Detroit Underground.
