Dropping this first week of 2022 there is a wonderful Idlefon remix video of a track by Temp-Illusion called “Two Lands,” originally released on the Pend album. Exploring the American divided society, whether by race, politics, affluence, poverty or any number of its divisions.
There is a cohesive palette of sounds at play across this release—binding the tracks together, assisting with creating an overall sense of identity.
