exm :: fjirtich (Self Released)

It’s almost as if these soundscapes are about to collapse; microscopic rhythms vanish and a skeletal outline is all that remains in its final minutes.

exm’s audio-visual soundtracks are like comfort food. fjirtich is a 15-minute piece of disconnected aural beauty that opens with shuffling acid-glitch braindance and eventually breaks down halfway through. The crunchy beats and melodic fibers start to come together at this point, while exm sets out on an emotional journey. It’s almost as if these soundscapes are about to collapse; microscopic rhythms vanish and a skeletal outline is all that remains in its final minutes. Utterly surreal and hypnotic.
