| Description | : SOFTL MUSIC SOM301, 2003; WARME DIGITAL-TUNES MIT SELTSAMEN ZWISCHENGERÄUSCHEN, DIE IN ABGEHACKT-FRAGILEN KOMPLEXEN AUFTAUCHEN, FINDEN SICH AUF DIESER SEHR GLITCHIGEN NEUEN CD AUF DEM KLEINEN KÖLNER LABEL... VERY NICE !! , IAN EPPS IS INTERESTED IN TREATING SOUND AS UNITS, MUCH LIKE BUILDING BLOCKS. THESE BLOCKS BECOME PIECES OF INFORMATION THAT SYNTHESIZE SPACE. EACH BLOCK HAS A VOICE AND SINGS, BUT TOGETHER SOUNDS OUT THE WARMTH AND INFINITELY COMPLEX NATURE OF A COMPOSED ENVIRONMENT., IT'S A HIGHLY DIGITAL SCENERY HE IS PAINTING HERE FOR THE LISTENER.
HEAVILY INFLUENCED BY THE LIKES OF OVAL, TONE LANGUAGE OR FENNESZ,
HIS COMPOSITIONS ARE SHORT AND FILLED WITH WARM SOUNDS - WARM BUT
DIGITAL. GLITCH ONE COULD CALL IT AND EPPS REMAINS IN THAT TRADITION,
BUT FINDS HIS OWN WAY... [VITAL WEEKLY] |
