Multiple universes collide in this blissful sonic entanglement that Abroxsis orchestrates with finesse.
All sounds are delicately maneuvered
Fractured and crumpled lullabies transform from delicately woven piano moments to scattered melodic layers drifting across the horizon. “Eternal” puts it into perspective—fleeting, glitchy, and time-stretched notes flutter about, lost in an ocean of audible data. Fans of Valance Drakes should also find Multiverse as familiar ground—tracks like “Impermanent” and its emotively charged soundtrack is a poignant example. “Silver Sun” exudes similar feelings—shattered electrical slabs and shuffling symphonies expand and contract while “Sega Dreams” is a future classic—slicing through the air like slivers of Arovane’s early days—elevating themselves over tranquilized melodic pockets. All sounds are delicately maneuvered as Abroxis sheds light over the shadows of IDM’s past. “Indomitable,” perhaps the most lifelike and organic of the lot, offers wildlife field recordings, detuned chimes, and microscopic rhythms zipping by like a forgotten time capsule. Multiple universes collide in this blissful sonic entanglement that Abroxis orchestrates with finesse. One to keep an ear and eye on as Detroit Underground expands their Hyperglitch series.
