专辑简介

Every record has two sides. There is an inherent duality to the format. Sometimes the sounds contained therein can expand beyond the average experience of sides A and B. Rise in Planes is one such record. It is both a collage of songs and a monolithic mantra of collapsing notes. A meditation on the realignment of atypical musical conjugations, such as meter and melody, and a time specific experiment on the effects that such change might have on the listener's state of mind both during and after the needle snakes its way through the grooves. While there is a distinct difference between the ascension of each side, there is also a permanence of timbre, whether alone, folded upon itself or accompanied, that conjures a sense of enchantment. One moment aggressive, the next soothing, meditative throughout, while also flouting the misshapen identity of Western dream music. Both the document of an electroacoustic magician and an improvisatory illusionist, Rise in Planes subverts futurism and past spontaneous composition in one slab of an etched polymer compound carved out to vibrate the air around you into binary thoughts.
