Continuing to unwrap streams of mind-boggling musical detail across several electronic music genres, Fields is a sonic smorgasbord that doesn’t let up.
It goes without question that 2016 yielded, at least for me, an abundance of prime, large-scale compilations—Crazy 10 Years A/V, Sectioned v6.0, Frequencies Of The Mind III, Silicate Recursions, and Touched 3—to name a few. One of the longest running net-labels that I’m aware of is Finland’s Kahvi Collective, which released their yearly compilation featuring 40 musicians from all across the map late December.
Fields certainly hasn’t gone off the radar in these parts, it’s been on a repeated loop for the past couple of months. Continuing to unwrap streams of mind-boggling musical detail across several electronic music genres, Fields is a sonic smorgasbord that doesn’t let up. Ambient, IDM, downtempo, glitch, experimental, noise, techno, jazz, leftfield, and instrumental elements interweave throughout.
Seamlessly posed alongside the finest on Planet Earth, Fields offers a definitive cross-section through its own roster, elevating those that have yet to be, and rightfully should be, heard.
Fields is available on Kahvi Collective. [Bandcamp]
