Comment:
Eknoh is Hal Honke, and vice
versa, whose 5-track issue is a part of the discography of the
Japanese imprint Ceramicrecords. Because
of having had no contact with the artist before listening to this
issue I thought firstly it is an album by a Finn due to the Finnish
title (Hi! Monthly Whales).
I also thought of it as an issue coming out from the 00s under such
labels either as Petite & Jolie, Error! Lo-Fi Recordings, 23
Seconds, Aerotone, or
No-Source. However, it is a
decent alternative, electronic pop issue with acidic grooves, brisk
changes between the chords, some catchy melodies and lead motives,
and sprawling yet exquisite
orchestrations. I
would like to call it an example of post-IDM (or IDM pop).
