Comment:
Gavia EP is
Cornwall-based Hanetration`s
ninth outing
(all the releases are issued
as EPs) and clearly having
either no pop ambition or any
wish to provide something
more clear-cut the UK-based artist continues to develop its profound
and interesting soundscape while having clear connotations with the
previous issues. It might be
the relation is even stronger due to stark experimental approach
through dizzying sonic
effects and murky electronic
scaffolds. In any cases you
can find out some new elements from the brand new one of
four compositions (for
instance, drowsy yet suggestive bagpipe improvisations, “merry”
piano chords and
exhausted synthesised progressions)
yet the whole effect coming
out from it seems to be seamless and energizing. One
can ask for
Zorile
of being either Celtic music or not. It
is all but lengthy and
boring – just 19 minutes
in total. In a word, it is
still an instance of post-industrial music yet it is going to add
more playful and even joyful elements with the every next outing. Yet this merriness may kill an average man who thinks of it as an innocent companion with beer and superficial attitude. Staggering stuff.
