Creating otherworldly environments built from clanging, acidic, scorched, decomposed and delaminated post-industrial-dub fusions that are best absorbed in one fell swoop.
Creating otherworldly environments
An industrial music event organizer in the Portland, Oregon area, Jason Goodrich (aka Badrich) continues to pursue the furthest possible noises buried deep inside his machines and delivers vast and exploratory soundscapes.
Evolving dark-ambient passages surround Forensics, yet it’s the artists ability to contort pseudo-electro formations and raw synth echoes submerged in blips’n bleeps that captures our senses with each release. Shuffling rhythmic bass and slippery glitch elements bend and flex via hundreds of fractured analog bits holding them together like a fine glue.
Tightly connected, Badrich manages to slice through a myriad of experimental electronic layers; creating otherworldly environments built from clanging, acidic, scorched, decomposed and delaminated post-industrial-dub fusions that are best absorbed in one fell swoop. Forensics finds peculiar electronic activity where highly-processed and strangely captivating soundtrack-driven electroacoustic transmissions are brought to their ultimate melting point. All that remains is a smoldering 15-track behemoth that draws from the creative artists’ vast sound bank; foraging through surreal dark corridors. Highlights include “Epicenter,” “Fugue State,” “Dream Chasm,” “Botched Crimp,” “Gilded Corridors,” and “Malleable” where fans of Richard Devine, Meat Beat Manifesto, Phoenecia should take notice.
