New
release on Meanwhile records from Remote.
"Celestion
(edit)" starts it off with a very wavey , fluffy wedbe
of audio that wobbles and flips towards you like a jellyfish
caught in the grip of a helicopters downforce. A very subtle
drumbeat joins in, and adds a fresh element to the mix with
a pinch of intrigue that heightens the beachfront feeling
off this one. It's all about the digitised water lapping
over your hot feet, as the persussive force of the track
sends out a pulse of energy all the way to the horizon and
back, in a successful attempt to spread the magic. Shell
popping stuff.
"A-tonal"
is another lesson in atmosphere creating electronics from
Remote. Soothing and reverbing washes of audio skip about
like a fish out of water, and send skywards arched sections
of undamaged code into the blue hazy distance on a mission
to capture any travelling knowledge in is path. Smooth stuff.
" Permafrost" takes a slightly different route,
and drops a power rich hum to test your defences, and doesnt
let up. This one rumbles, turns and investigates everything
it comes across, with a presence, that has you checking
over your shoulder to make sure you arent being tracked.
Very rich.
This release from Remote was very interesting to listen
to, and has a lot of depth and scope to it. Its one for
the sunny days on a rich green hillside, whilst you share
a glass of energon with Optimus Prime. Simple, clever and
full of life, not my normal cup of tea, music wise but refreshing
anyhow.
Take
a listen.
