A kaleidoscopic musical entity that merges into one cohesive and tranquil transmission.
Trailing through nostalgic Music Has The Right To Children-era Boards Of Canada terrain, Random Value delivers clipped down-tempo interludes, ambient shapes and treated wind instruments on Chromatic Aberration—probably the cleanest error for the label thus far. Field recordings and blurry snapshots of times gone by, the mood shifts ever so lightly from calm fluttery synths to punchy glitch manifests. Laid back gauzy electrical pulses abound—surrounded by infectious basslines as the audio artist maneuvers where early tunes from Milieu and Ten And Tracer left off. Abstract and veering into brisk harmonic tone shifts and data processing, melodic slivers are wedged between rhythmic collisions that are complimented by sincere blips ‘n bleeps while subtle voices appear and vanish into thin air. A kaleidoscopic musical entity that merges into one cohesive and tranquil transmission.
