The four tracks on Soul Data Transfer’s eponymous debut EP for ECU are delicately woven, abstract ambient-glitch morsels that flow and transcend space and time.
Tag: Abstract
vssp :: Over the sun (Kalamine)
As a whole, vssp’s Over the sun has a consistent feel and a steady pace. It is best for meditative moods, for periods of quiet and extended listening. The temporary nature of modern life is connoted throughout.
Felipe Vaz :: Architecture and Distraction (Evel)
Fast beats and non-rhythms flicker and fracture, revealing what appears to be the unpolished insides of the tools employed during the creative process.
Poppy H :: Confidence Of Crisis EP (Cruel Nature)
Poppy H creates dubby, almost aquatic sound structures that are characterized by a downtempo lo-fi feel and whirling electrical debris fields.
Michael Trommer :: Spectral Sound System (Panospria / No Type)
Delivering a variety of soundscapes blended in unison, the extended piece exudes ambient, drone, experimental, field recording, and minimal characteristics.
(R)adar :: Runtime Eater EP (Xephem)
A subtle yet important addition to any experimental electronic music collection, Xephem definitely embark on earlier sonic artforms with a futuristic twist on Runtime Eater.
Pentagrams Of Discordia :: The Hippopotomons – trosesquippedaliophobia EP (Pulse State)
Slowly luring us in with warped melodies, slow motion rhythms, and unyielding atmospheric textures and tones.
Frank Riggio :: Dri (Hymen)
Developing a completely original style, the album feels cinematic and overflowing with a variety of intense field recordings and transformed found sounds.
Ian Boddy :: Modal Operandi (Quiet Details)
Modal Operandi is a fulfilling listen. Tracks bear fruit through melodic complexity and the inclusion of quiet, often minute details that can be more and more readily detected on repeat listens.
Michael Valentine West :: comp/COMP (uvg212)
You might even draw parallels to the early works of Mouse On Mars, Autechre (“Gantz Graf” era), or even Richard Devine’s industrial-leaning sandblasted synthesizer techniques.
Synthetic Ecology 2 :: Finding the edge, some thoughts about ‘experimental music’
Experimental music can mean many things—often tracks are beat-less or off-beat, atonal or noisy, or in some way either more or less dense than other genres. My point is not to establish orthodox genre boundaries.
