Diskrepant :: Through an Odious Framework (Attenuation Circuit)

Active as Diskrepant since 1997, he uses vinyl static, analogue systems, concrete sounds and field recordings and all the gadgets with which to forge them into your desired shape, if you desire to create a kind of subtle, supralunary dub ambient.

Diskrepant ‘Through an Odious Framework’

[Releases page] First part in a trilogy of 3″ discs planned by Swedish sound artist Per Åhlund for release on Attenuation Circuit. Active as Diskrepant since 1997, he uses vinyl static, analogue systems, concrete sounds and field recordings and all the gadgets with which to forge them into your desired shape, if you desire to create a kind of subtle, supralunary dub ambient.

The title is almost an insult to the work, because Through an Odious Framework is beautiful, slowly orbiting music through which sputniks fly. At the same time, it is extremely tactile, with its vinyl crackle, singing metal, and cold but cozy atmosphere—autumn in outer space. The work has a genuine but rare dub touch, glassy rather than bass-heavy, its echoes causing crystals to vibrate and church bells to ring without being struck.

Through an Odious Framework is available on Attenuation Circuit. [Releases page]
