Analog soundscraping noise cemented by fractured industrial tropes is par for the course, and yet the duo from Northern Komi lands (ködzid goo) and Southern Ukraine (kojoohar) manage to create molten lava flows where abstract downtempo hip-hop is ravaged by atmospheric mechanical warfare.
Locked in its mission to corrode and erode experimental electronics
Perhaps some of the darkest ambient we’ve heard in a little while, dotla takes modular synths to extreme working levels. Hardened vocals fixed to scorched beats, here one finds utter dystopian worlds excavated by rhythmic “mechanoid instrumentation” rattling the senses. Analog soundscraping noise cemented by fractured industrial tropes is par for the course, and yet the duo from Northern Komi lands (ködzid goo) and Southern Ukraine (kojoohar) manage to create molten lava flows where abstract downtempo hip-hop is ravaged by atmospheric mechanical warfare. The artists themselves called dotla the “angst pop side of industrial,” and we couldn’t agree more. If anything, its blistered and otherworldly sonic traverse is locked in a mission to corrode and erode experimental electronics.
dotla is available on Ant-Zen. [Bandcamp]
