Comment: this
4-notch outing by Leipzig, German artist Olliver Wichmann aka
Synflict is a classical post-industrial one with slowly progressing
sonic terrains being culminated atop with spiky, metallic sparks and
hollow echoes and spoken flickers the last of them at a time may be
perceived as the playground for sanity and madness to get tightly
interacted. By focusing on the titles of the issue you can meet such
ones as
Unrest,
Exhaustion,
Flashback, and
Void. Each of these compositions used to be truly long yet they constitute a coherent solar system with one another. It does say quite much about the issue. By moving along this path you
will be discerning uncanny, strange sounds surely of not coming from
your safe and secure world. Additionally, at the foot one can hear
sounds being inclined to the so-called Klingklang aesthetic being
also closely related to German electronic circles. Besides the
predominant electronic manipulation one can partake in guitar induced
flows and because of that there are up a bunch of intriguing
combinations, mind-provoking interactions to be interrupted by short
circuits (read it as incisive sonic effects). On the other side, it
is a subtle drift between emotions and the repulsion of them. This
disturbingly awesome issue is a part of the discography of an Italian
imprint, Nostress.
