Comment: this handful of compositions is somehow eerie and spooky as if depicting an area being devastated either by an enormous catastrophe or horrendous terror. It does not mean these five soundscapes are directly harsh and abusive, vice versa, one can hear slowly droning templates being surrounded by glitched-out bits and gritty noisy frequencies in upper templates. However, there are also represented more harsh torrents to bring forth the contrasted sensibility between it and murky beauty of droning and minimally orchestrated neoclassical segments. The point of mine is all of that is craftily equilibrated within the whole providing either no excessive information or useless and sterile dodges in the sonic terrains thereby avoiding decline in quality with regard to the concept and sound. I am inclined to think off the title "thisturb" refers to disturbing state thereafter (i.e after a catastrophic event). The convincing outing is a part of the discography of Tape Safe.
