Edgeist - Landscapes (2011)



/Power electronics, Ambient noise, Rhythmic noise, Experimental, Ritual noise, Avant-garde, Industrial techno/


Comment: Edgeist is an industrial/noise solo project started off in 2005 in Lyon, France. He has issued a shitloads of releases (mainly EPs) under various labels (Clinical Archives; Amduscias Records; Picomedia) where you can perceive compelling rhythmic noise, piercing power electronica, and oddly undulating ambient noise above it. More concretely, by listening to Edgeist`s brand new one, indeed, it chimes very danceable on its own. Like a sort of techno music thought for proponents of black metal or something like that. This 5-piece publication is highly charming and inspiring indeed. As if the shamans were traded their drums to electronic devices in order to make the music of their own in the 21th century.
