Experimental Electronic Music
Boysen, in sum, steers these definitive high-level productions as some of the finest on the planet. Creating an engrossing auditory experience of controlled chaos, Alta Ripa transports entangled technoid versus atmospheric coordinates that simply do not hold back.
Both subtle and saturated with distilled microsound layers, Alpi Graie e Pennine is simply otherworldly and comes highly recommended.
