Number
two in the 'Residents association' series currently firing
out of the Cactus Island Recordings camp.
"The
power of corridors" lets a magic powder out of the
small valve on its chest, and captures your gaze with its
minimal tinklings. Investigation capsules covered in pops
and drumthuds investigate all those unprocessed items that
you continually store away in your mind, and come away with
jems of knowledge to be used for a sinister masterplan.
Evil I tells ya. Spinning glass bugs, with glass fingers,
and glass like backpacks are questioning you, so many questions,
just so many, it surely has to be "Stitched Switch".
This one continues the minimal essence of TPOC, by giving
off its message through a symphony of heartbeats and minature
alarms, all pushed and prodded into the cavity like insides
of an abandoned 9 volt battery. Just remember to keep your
tongue off them there terminals.
"Half
an echo" harks of an orchestral symphony being played
within a secret patch of red and blue mushrooms, and only
the residents of this weird clicky world get to witness
the event. Refined sounds are sprayed out like a fine liquid
mist into the air, creating a warm fuzzy crunch, that hovers
about ear height and interferes with your lovely new earlobes,
spreading a staticy chime hiss to your core. Xylophone ghosts
made of aluminum and mirrors will be your friend on this
one.
Kelp
is a very well crafted and mesmorising release by Flotel.
A bit to minimal for my palette, but if you are a fan of
this genre, definetly check this out.
