Experimental Electronic Music
Surrounded by good friends contributing their own interpretations—including Abdicant, Access To Arasaka, Valance Drakes, Jérôme Chassagnard, Unterm Rad, Asshole Galaxy, Abdicant, Weldroid, Grosso Gadgetto, and Mitoma—”Альбатрос” turns into an avalanche of sonic detritus.
The best course of action is to just jump in and take in the vast scenery that is offered here. Joachim Stiller offers extended synth strands and micro-sound abstractions, reminiscent of vintage Subotnick experiments.
A well-balanced album of emotive experimental electronic music that aims to expose finer visual-audio fragments in its dense sound design. An upper-level release we’ll keep in constant rotation.

scav finds solace in peculiarly compelling minimized clicks and cuts where skillfully weaved ambient noises mingle with darker soundtrack elements producing pleasant tones to the core.
The album architecture is mainly built around sneakily and meandering sonic textures, layering drone vibes with plenty of reverberant signals and micro noises.
A surreal ambient colossus that is well worth your attention.
