This half-dozen selection from Not Yet Remembered features an impressive lineup, bringing together skewed electronic sounds from Loopbasedzero, Orbiscopus, Le Verger, and Precenphix in a frantic sonic feast that is both mysterious and eerie. It’s a subtly raucous journey that blends downtempo beats and industrial snippets to captivate our senses. “Pastoral Two” is one such track that does this, fusing calming glitch-ambient threads with twitchy sounds to create the illusion of distant, organic and mechanical structures. Crunchy illbient and click-hop beats continue in “Rail Idle,” a highlight that is a forceful assault of noise and rough rhythms while opener “Rail Out” sheds mechanized sound spaces with all of its bells and whistles diffusing the background. More subdued instrumental segments may also be heard here, such as the odd tangle of warped sound structures on “Rail In,” which sets up the uplifting and concluding clicks’n cuts of “Wagan IV.” Not to be overlooked is “Station Light,” which delves into an ambient/glitch panorama with a strong synth beat.

Reading the liner notes for (Relative Shelter) is a must if you want to understand more about the backstory (and significance) of how this collaboration came to be.
