iGod – Fuckscapes CD

After the release of the long-awaited album Analog Algorithm, Levan Lomidze expands the theme with Molecular Geometry – atmospheric techno EP, the next part and continuation of Analog Algorithm. Producer focuses on four tracks that most fully reveal the content and musical poetics of the album. Each sound is in the right place and adds to the unique effect of presence. It feels like a soundtrack to a space odyssey with maximum immersion. Definitely an essential listening.

This one-off collaboration between electronic artist/producer iGod and noted Japanese Bizzaro Fiction writer Kenji Siratori provides a dark dystopian techno full of cut-and-paste beats and narration.

goii (German Ocean 2) is the follow up to the Brighton post-ambient dronescape merchants’ eponymous debut. Where the first album took listeners to the cold deep seas, goii attempts to reach for the sky; the five tracks acting as an imagined map into a world of thinning oxygen and eerie silence, punctured by the external drones of engines, propellers, the rattle of mounted cannon and movements of air that sing their strange songs along to the inner voices, chants (or prayers?) of men and women experiencing the thrill and fear of altitudes their fleshy bodies were never meant to attain. The fields below are a patchwork quilt bounded by hedgerows and dotted with sheep, grazing without a care in the world or a single thought for the feats of bravery, love and bloodlust above.
