Featuring remixes by c0ma, Sgure, Randomform and VNDL—all with their own unique tangents on the title track and “Congealed”—Abstrakt Reflections segues into cohesively disjointed electronics that bends and contorts without any resistance.
What comes to mind immediately is a mashing of electronic form and dysfunction on Flint Kids’ Day Nil EP for Abstrakt Reflections. Meant in a positive light, these two opposing forces—calm versus chaos—tend to merge with each other via a conduit of creative sound mangling. There are many descriptors for Day Nil which should be noted: Scraped dub, industrial tentacles, crunched percussion, mechanical deformation, minced tones, crumpling effects, signal processing, tethered basslines, melodic slivers, menacing digital squabbles, screeches and randomized noise keeps this downtempo glitch EP neatly tucked away in a swift package of lopsided rhythms. Featuring remixes by c0ma, Sgure, Randomform and VNDL—all with their own unique tangents on the title track and “Congealed”—Abstrakt Reflections segues into cohesively disjointed electronics that bends and contorts without any resistance.
Day Nil is available on Abstrakt Reflections. [Release page]
