SKALD 038LP
|
Double LP version. SDEM's debut album for Mancunian electronic music imprint Skam Records. Vortices' nine tracks continue SDEM's current prolific flow after a steady series of drops via his own MEDS label and other like-minded operators (CPU, Opal Tapes, Seagrave, Superpang, etc.) Informed by hip-hop and computer music and steeped in Northern England's post bleep+bass mutations, Vortices operates in its own lane, rooted as much in the by-hand manipulations of musique concrete and free improv as the studio-as-an-instrument innovations of electro, hip-hop, dub, and bass-weighted electronica. Evolved out of hardware jams, the pieces showcased here crackle with emotion and color, repeated plays reveal suggested and subliminal depths. Neither shackled to the grid nor enslaved to linearity, the album expands and finesses SDEM's dynamic and forward-facing approach. Features S1.
