datewithdeath :: “Whist” b/w Neuro… No Neuro Remix (Poverty Electronics)

Brittle melodicism captured in a brief two-chapter sonic foray.

Tiny percussive jolts interact with drone echoes

Travis D. Johnson (aka datewithdeath) and the short runtime of “Whist” is a baffling electrical spark where tiny percussive jolts interact with drone echoes and surreal synth shapes. Kirk Markarian (aka Neuro… No Neuro) takes “Whist” for a spin in his usual minimalist direction, where microscopic fibers bend and twist with an abstract clicks and cuts dynamic—moving in slow motion, but carrying the original pulse with a sort of Hawaiian glitch-like flare. Brittle melodicism captured in a brief two-chapter sonic foray.

“Whist” b/w Neuro… No Neuro Remix is available on Poverty Electronics. [Bandcamp]
