Syndrôm :: Sans Artifices EP (Pavillon36)

Syndrôm’s music was previously described as “deftly explore(ing) outer worlds before heading towards this circular cosmic spot.” Having rebooted his own France-based imprint Pavillon36, Sans Artifices is a welcomed return and continues in a brooding post-ambient beat-trodden escape.

Seven tracks traversing a vast tribal-downtempo tapestry are merged with darker beat-scapes. Whereas Syndrôm (usually) manipulates electrons and magnetic glitch’n bass, this (name your price) collection is choke full of tremulous percussion and heavily sporadic rhythms. A label resuscitated from the brink of (digital) extinction, Sans Artifices eradicates preconceived notions, takes a step forward, and clearly manifests the skills of a musical mastermind. Fans of early Amon Tobin and Witchman should take note.

Sans Artifices is available on Pavillon36.
