i’ve been hearing goood voices around this french dude tao after his amazing EPs on ogredung, and have been being asked several times about other releases from him.
well as always we try to satisfy our audience so here is what u requested, in a new _even_ more intellectual beauty-face.
this ep recalls in a certain way some previous airs; it begins with ‘expand’, a short cemeterial ambientish piece, deep and profound in its simplicity, where we can figure out in the obscurity blue ‘fate-fires’. with lobby, undefined voices introduce our memoirs into a palyndromous path (as the release date should say heh), and we can clearly feel influences and returns to the first subtle tracks. whistleable melodies, dressed with sub-drums and mech-chords as a soundtrack for our passage of the waxed corridor. the final track is certainly the climax accomplished; between crakies and reverbs, a tingled melody shows its face and multiplies with distant melancholy, to express a lament we can’t help hearing and quiver with it.
sir tao makes us all guests of his thrilled hotel; we hope to enjoy our stay, his shudderness! :))
