Experimental Electronic Music
Radiating enigmatic industrial-electronic pulses from Omaha, Neutrino Effect (aka Jon Sanford) ventures into an entirely different dimension with FAMINE, a fourteen-track assemblage, fleeting in length but with the cosmic force of the universe propelling us through its boundless depths.
These atmospheric post rock soundscapes, dark ambient-acoustic and organic sound design, are somehow breaking free after being buried long ago and the woods grew over the top. Here is found the dark wooded album, Sylvan.
I am carried about on the circularly flowing strings within dim and transparent emerging elements and an odd mixture of electronic textures, granular and glitchy, and decorated with humorous abrupt collages.
This is synthesized drone with the addition of processed chordal timbres that are longitudinal and unobtrusive. Some sparse and detached crystal-like piano touches are also perceptible, covered by diaphanous, shimmering, and electronically generated vocal timbres.
Sometimes the constant listener might be passing right through the lines between ambient-electronica and post-rock, with layers of shimmering synths and gone distant etherial guitars.
Sometimes, leaning heavily on the synthesizers, more on the piano, sometimes melodies shimmer around the corner, just as they can be entirely abstract. All of this is done with one objective, and one that he reaches: to play some excellent fine mood music.
Each of these five pieces shows a melodic drift, slow, hazy and shimmering in the background. It’s like an organ melody set against the blurry tones of whatever else is happening, which can’t be easily heard.
Nocturnal Emissions and Barnacles have invited us to embark on an interstellar journey, urging us to question our place in the cosmos and embrace the boundless possibilities of the unknown.
A dialogue is set up between the cadence of ambient drone and the cascade of post-rock (rock sublimated) with an array of textures and strata perfused in a kind of slo-mo wide-sky outfolding.
