Debut
release on Benbecula from new artist ' Phrizzm '.
'
small comfort ' has a flash gordon smiling face going down
here, you can just see those 80's green and gold costumes
already. Tied together by a regurgitating computers and
washing beeps layers of richness build up and up into a
thick cake like slice of electronic goodness that presses
all of those luminescent buttons in your titanium face.
Killer stuff.
Plodding
tones and the imminent release of something majestic is
what ' minutiae ' is all about. Foil like pops and exploding
plastic murmurings begin to unveil the huge structure hidden
underneath the wall of light, as unseen particle ricochets
and fracturing sections of time, splatter all over the show
in a display of intense power. This is all topped off by
a ride into the centre of a marble coated in funk and ghosty
sub calls, simply amazing stuff.
' Grasping the equinox ' takes your eyes out of their sockets
and replaces them with windows into tomorrow and you witness
a juttering semi rendered version of today with just a few
changes, whilst 'empty your mind' converses with a mega
tall rumbling robot with a distorted cushioned voice and
tiny civilisations for eyes which emit so much information
that its hard to take in. Be prepared to fill your imagination
with audio.
'
i miss you already ' floods emotion into the empty channel
and takes you with it. The melody in this one really grabs
you by the ears and rubs its flabby crystal hands all over
your face, as spectacularly wonderful shimmering plastic
films stretch for miles in every distance to create a planet
wide layer of vivid colour and audio that has to be heard
to really appreciate it.
Phrizzm ep is a stunning piece of debut music, one of the
instant classics that will be played for many a moon. Inspiring
stuff.
Well played 'izzm.
