Enabl.ed continues to produce a steady vehicle of rhythmic speed-bumps that packages itself uniquely in a playground of drenched glitch.
It’s been an prolific few years for Jimmy Batista’s Enabl.ed moniker and a challenge to isolate the senses from recent outings in order to digest this (new) 6-pack digital release on Enpeg. Sure each track on offer is seasoned with a myriad of glitched effects, distorted echoes, subtle melodic strings, twisted ambience and classic electronics—but it’s not just the artists’ knack for creative audio mulching that sets him apart. Enabl.ed’s concise delivery of clean production and deliberate use of distressed low-end maneuvering has him carving a plethora of tweaks that will appeal to fans of Lowfish, Brothomstates and Karsten Pflum’s early works. Analogous fluids drip into digital music boxes creating twenty-one minutes of beat-infused melody factories that itch to be heard.
So as these ears try to break free of comparisons to previous output, Enabl.ed continues to produce a steady vehicle of rhythmic speed-bumps that packages itself uniquely in a playground of drenched glitch.
Paranoid Nostalgia is available on Enpeg. Buy at Enpeg.
