A window to the past; D-Fried captures unusual transmissions in saturated strands where found sounds sizzle, snap, and ping their way through the mist.
Breathing life into abandoned landscapes
Background synthesizers flutter as Barcelona based Jordi Saludes (aka D-Fried) opts for raw guitars, bass, and various instruments to take center stage on Butō [part 1]. Where artists like Mike Cadoo took his sonic craft via Bitcrush, Saludes projects a similar scope of work with ethereal and dreamlike resonances drenched in heavily processed noises; breathing life into abandoned landscapes. Accurately described as inspired by Brian Eno, Harold Budd, Biosphere, and Fennesz, Butō [part 1] feels like a soundtrack to familiar lost worlds, as if tapping into another dimension where he extracts surreal ambient textures and time-stretched pulses within six entangled sonic Polaroids.
A window to the past; D-Fried captures unusual transmissions in saturated strands where found sounds sizzle, snap, and ping their way through the mist. A dazzling array of glitched atmospherics, complex musicality, and a blurring of the senses, there’s just enough light to pierce through dense cloud structures. With illuminating echoes and emotive passages, we’re looking forward to part 2.
Butō [part 1] is available on Kalamine. [Bandcamp]
