Comment: as the
Finnish artist Thuoom did close his second grand cycle in order to
begin a studio hiatus, there are up a couple of compilation issues
released simultaneously (
10 years In Noise, and
reCycle 2).
These ones gather together a bunch of unreleased tunes having no
particular fit with the albums he composed during the second cycle.
Indeed, there is represented a bunch of 13 tracks full of different
sort of sonic experiments with uncanny rhythms, heavily boreal
infused soundscapes, throbbing techno cadences of recent Finnish
witches, amplified electricity and elliptically trudging noises,
interrupted yet still loopy circuits, extended guitar chords and bold
drones from the tundra. All is changing permanently around the
listener yet fulfilling it through slowly changing cycles the
ultimate effect will grow even bigger. At a time one can discover
he/she has stepped unremarkably into another forest or landscape.
Without any doubt, there can be drawn parallels upon his outstanding
compatriots Ilpo Väisänen, and deceased Mika Vainio aka Pan Sonic,
obviously one of the best artists having ever existed within the
history of electronic music. Furthermore, I can personally say I am
very proud of my mighty paternal grandmother who is Finnish. But such
sort of music adds an extra charge to it (of course, I know such sort
of feelings are not very supported in the contemporary highly tolerant Western Europe). A must-have listening for any experimental music fan
by a man who has established himself as a symbol within the weblabel
world. And as usual, this mighty and cathartic miscellany is released
on his own imprint called Textural Healing.
