V/A :: UNO-IKI-SAN (UNOIKI)

Clinical, beat-infested terrain is executed in microscopic details as each magnetized sound cell displays a surplus of rhythmic bass.

uno-iki-san Predominately buried in molecular electronics, brittle to the touch and engulfed in extracts of dub-techno, clicks’n cuts and experiments in sonic architecture, UNOIKI unravels their 3-yr anniversary compilation for its fan-base. Clinical, beat-infested terrain is executed in microscopic details as each magnetized sound-cell displays a surplus of rhythmic bass.

Dr. NoJoke manifests dub-bass and audio precision, Tendts yields nostalgic Boards of Canada-laden low-end clicks, swirls of melody and ambient shuffling. Strukturator finesses a Mille Plateaux dynamic of crisp clicks and diluted Berlin styled bass techno. Andres Marcos elicits a lively Squarepusher jazz introspection (ref. Music Is Rotted One Note, Warp 1998) as Superlauncher’s data-glitch, voice bending and analog knob twisting takes UNO-IKI-SAN to mechanized vistas worth diving head first into.

As there are many other artists on-hand to celebrate UNOIKI’s third year in operation, they’ve created a plethora of frequency bent mutations of techno, lost worlds of erratic beauty and electronic accelerations that ultimately pulls the listener in to unfold each audio element. Whether you appreciate the trajectory of the music or the nifty exterior packaging—a foldable poster and sculpture lets you explore space—UNO-IKI-SAN brings to light the pulse of leftfield technoid flurries and will easily appeal to fans of Raster-Noton and Electroton. An elegant production of art and sound.

UNO-IKI-SAN is available on UNOIKI. [Release page]
