4T Thieves consistently releases intricate audio sculptures and visual displays, dousing every layer with a profusion of sharp beats and ethereal atmospheres encircled by brittle kaleidoscope rhythms, diverse found sounds, and faint vocal extracts.
An enduring audiovisual transmission
4T Thieves makes another comeback to Rednetic and provides yet another thorough listening experience from the multi-talented musician. An incredibly potent back catalog spanning numerous years, and yet there’s still more soundscapes to deliver via Unseeing Eyes. The melancholic and nostalgic sounds produced by artists such as PBS73, Faex Optim, Pentagrams of Discordia, Clocolan, Freescha, and others who seek solace in emotionally charged ambient electronic music, are inextricably linked to the iconic Scottish duo who blazed this same trail more than twenty years ago. The main difference is that 4T Thieves consistently releases these intricate audio sculptures and visual displays; dousing every layer with a profusion of sharp beats and ethereal atmospheres encircled by brittle kaleidoscope rhythms, diverse found sounds, and faint vocal extracts.
Every track on Unseeing Eyes has a cohesive mood with developing rhythms and synth waves that gradually give way to surreal panoramic ambient vistas. It’s easily a soaring collection that drifts between highs and lows while projecting a positive light throughout its thirteen audio Polaroids. While never holding back, 4T Thieves offers unique audible snapshots into the past, present, and future. “Life On Hold,” “Blockhammer,” “Eidetic Memories,” “Unseeing Eyes,” “The Empty Beach,” “Only the Lonely,” “Streetlight Shadows,” and the poignant, closing track “My Favorite Person” are among the standouts. An enduring audiovisual transmission.
Unseeing Eyes is available on Rednetic. [Bandcamp]
