They Cast No Shadows is an alluring and distinguished collection of impressionist, minimal, then complex electro-experimental rock pieces…
Tag: Abstract
Autechre :: Draft 7.30 & Confield Reissues (Warp)
One could imagine Autechre’s music as a lumbering, semi-amorphous creature cannibalized and synthesized with parts from electro, hip-hop, industrial, noise, free jazz, and plain old experimental music.
Michael Valentine West :: COMMS EP (Polygon Network)
Where broken sound bytes and data crunching tend to blend, the tiniest melodic hiccups transition into densely packed electronics.
Wilder Gonzales Agreda :: 1994 EP (Superspace)
Are these opposing sonic forces or perhaps distant stars finding each other in The Milky Way? Ultimately, 1994 is a pleasant sojourn and a tangled mess, and we enjoyed every minute.
Somaticae :: Présent Perpétuel EP (3OP)
All short pieces and utterly to the point, these brief soundscapes tend to levitate across a broad sonic spectrum where punchy percussive jolts and stabbing rhythms unfold at multiple angles.
bvdub :: Fumika Fades (EC Underground)
Stylistically, Fumika Fades doesn’t stray too far from the sound he’s been developing in recent years, the grainy, reverb-laden pads and atmospheric textures are all familiar…
4T Thieves :: Nomad’s Requiem (Werra Foxma)
Werra Foxma takes the opportunity to release these audible gems submerged in nostalgic flutter. Opening downtempo strands and melodic loops cascade…
Aphex Twin :: …I Care Because You Do (Warp) —28 years later
The 90s were unrepeatable and …I Care Because You Do proves it. Composed between 1990 and 1994, it is a paradigm of the advanced adolescent.
Somatic Responses :: Rhinog Fawr’ (Heol Ddu)
The scraping, noise-drenched slabs in which John Healy (one half of Somatic Responses) is able to craft are astounding.
Valance Drakes :: A Weak Shield Protects Not EP (Urban Virus)
Nine minutes and an infinity we can’t even fathom, Valance Drakes delivers transparent soundwaves just barely reaching the lower atmosphere. Massaging ghostlike glitch for us mere mortals.
Shubharun Sengupta :: Iggle (Self Released)
Even if these tracks are filled with audible data bursting at the seams, a bricolage of sound-scraping noises all tend to merge together on Iggle, angular electronics indeed.
