Bend, Sinister – Netlabel Archive

Artist: v/a
Title: elevation
Label: Dewtone
Catalog #: dt005
Release Date: 2005/04/07

dewtone’s debut ep brings forth a minute, yet tasteful selection of electronic composition.

tom dinchak’s solo project, “phortran” starts the release off with a chilly melancholy lullaby. wrapped in deep sweeps and laced with that lovely idm-style beat programming we expect to find in most of his music. quickly, newcomer quone kicks things into high gear with a tactful, upbeat, glitch-trip thriller entitled, “seeking new advances”.

headphone science, aka david craig (founder of illmatik vibes), makes his first appearance on dewtone with a piece called, “endoh michiyo”. captivating melodic atmospheres and trademark broken-break rhythms. then settle comfortably into your chair as bend, sinister deliver again with another delicious jazzy dew drop titled, “leave her good graces”.

we are also proud to re-introduce an aspiring electronic composer named james zdrowski (otherwise known as ontagon). elevation’s dreamy outro track “forget to remember” serves up touching, quality vocal work and resonated progression on a warm plate of soothing pads + synth. released originally on his break-out ep entitled, “forgetful“. superb.
