Delving back and forth between splintered synth slabs and broken beat forays, there’s a lot more going on behind the scenes than we’re able to hear on the surface.
Splintered synth slabs and broken beat forays
This four track extended player—released September 2021—sees Eden Grey traverse darker trajectories where downtempo/industrial shards scatter about (“Transition”) and punchy synth elements slide across with a rhythmic tone (“Solstice”). On the title track, Eden Grey smolders technoid slices across mechanical extracts that sets the EP on a more movement-centered path. Whereas “Solarscape” delves into pristine ambient electronica layered with subtle vocal touches and meandering synth noodling (quite a departure from the rest of the EP), Hi Mr Wizard captures a slice of what the Miami-based digital composer is capable of. Delving back and forth between splintered synth slabs and broken beat forays, there’s a lot more going on behind the scenes than we’re able to hear on the surface.
Hi Mr Wizard is available on Bandcamp.
