rand :: Peripherie (Self Released)
rand offers minuscule audio Polaroids where abstract pitter-patter notes glide with highly-tensioned strings vibrating in the most unusually calming tangents.
James N Murray :: An Emerald Necklace (Dragon’s Eye)
Hidden complex beats, electronically restless, constantly shimmering about. The percussion pushes the whole thing just under the repeating melodies.
