Samuel Rohrer's newest solo album, Codes of Nature, shows the artist making yet more refinements and additions to an already rich catalog of musical ideas. Though he has excelled in collaborative projects with Ambiq, Ricardo Villalobos, Max Loderbauer, Tobias Freund, Dark Star Safari, Nils Petter Molvaer, Oren Ambarchi, and many others, it is fascinating to experience him also working in a field completely his own, yet managing to still give the impression of being fully integrated or connected with a larger musical universe. A strange, intriguing ambiguity between the specific and the universal is indeed what makes Rohrer's music worth playing on a loop -- the cool, downtempo, yet energized constructions on Codes are powered by subtle atmospheric and tonal changes, and work like a camouflage adaptable to any environment. This is a record whose strength derives from its versatility. It's clear that this versatility of sounds has been inspired by a commitment to positive differentiation that is not just a musical one, and that's where this work will inspire others in turn. Personnel: Samuel Rohrer - drums, percussion, electronics, keys, modular synths; Music produced, recorded, and mixed by Samuel Rohrer.
