LUGANO FELL "SLICE REPAIR" (BASKARU) |
| |
One thing I find myself mesmerized by on this rich "slice" of experimental ambient is the subtlety of its atmosphere. On the whole, it is absorbing, minimalist textures with a subdued but full-of-space hollow musicality (though beats and notes in any kind of traditional sense are not really the forces at work here); it is inviting - but also forboding. That's makes it even more interesting. There's a certain dark ominousness to the proceedings that mingle electrically with the overall soft ambient drift of the music. From William Orbitish low-keyness (and then some) to glitchy skitters that don't overwhelm, from warbled cut and chopped samples to semi-techy noise hypnotism, "Slice Repair" is a captain of captivation, beautiful and unassumingly lush, but at the same time imbued with a slight sense of darkness and danger. It's a top flight batch of experimental brilliance that fans of abnormal ambient and aural exploration should make haste to consume.-- review by Kristofer Upjohn
