Experimental Electronic Music
Blanchimont is immersive armchair electronics, compositions that are uncluttered yet complex. A statement from an artist who marches to his own beat, one who continues to draw deserved admiration and recognition. Long may this golden return continue.
With juxtaposed rhythms and flickering beats, Dutch producer Stefan Vincent’s Pre Melancholy (released on MUSAR, June 2023) is a sweetened industrial and shuffled ambient-techno mélange.
Warmly recommended for lovers of lysergic icy ambient beauty with a deep pulsating edge and a terrifying, disorientating cosmic/dystopian sensibility, to be placed next to releases by Vladislav Delay, Monolake, The Orb, and Kangding Ray.
An album that abandons any musical and communicative dogma to rediscover a direct link between rhythm and soul.
Two tracks totaling approximately twenty-one minutes, with a concentration on broad and wide-angle ambient-dub/techno extracts.
Nine tracks span around 40-minutes and the thorough sound vistas offer delicately shifting ambient-techno realms blending with pitter-patter glitch’n bleeps debris and braindance shards.
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.
What a detailed story Thlostones is; drawing from classic soundscapes and inspiration that artists like Sean Deason, B12, and The Detroit Escalator Company ignited in the early days.
