Radere - The Earth, Laid Bare (2012)
/Organic electronica, Epic, Ambient, Ambient noise, Post-rock, Crossover, Experimental electronica, Musique concrète/
Comment: similarly to other releases on basic_sounds this issue by Carl Ritger contains just one track/composition, though, spreaded out over 35 minutes. It is highly organic involving the elements of electronica, ambient, microscopic noise, and experimental/post-rock, however, all of these stylistic elements are seamlessly interlaced with each other. Furthermore, all these aspects in turn are infiltrated with the seeds of found sounds/field recording. It brings forth a bunch of pleasant consequences - it is soothing, it is epic and thus even exulting. At times it seems to be more the burning of a campfire than the sequences of deliberately treated chords. By kindred souls, however, it can be compared to the likes of slept., Labradford, Tudo de Volta, Tim Hecker, Ecovillage, Clark Nova Portable, Beth Kleist, Machinefabriek, Loscil, Pan American and many other ones. What a stupendous flow! In a word, it is an instance of a God`s trace.
