Druid is a cinematic and audiovisual experience for the senses; transporting us through multiple layers of exploratory sound patterns, textures, and shifting structures while deftly blending roughened sceneries with explosive clarity.
Energized glitch transmissions drifting in the distance
In this collaborative effort, Kessel & Kerqus explore fluid electronics that ebb and flow through atmosphere and soundtrack moments, with a darker industrial-noise entanglement at the forefront. After being released in October 2023, the album continues to reveal subtle layers of ambient, dub, and clicks’n cuts from the periphery over the course of several months. Ten pieces, all painstakingly exploring nostalgic, crunchy, and energized glitch transmissions drifting in the distance, make up the experimental portion of these tempered sonic compositions. As a result, Druid is a cinematic and audiovisual experience for the senses; transporting us through multiple layers of exploratory sound patterns, textures, and shifting structures while deftly blending roughened sceneries with explosive clarity. A benchmark release for the duo, and for Detroit Underground.
