Comment: before I started listening to this 6-notch Moon series I had listened to two previous outings of the Lithuanian experimental musician. And it was a truly arbitrary, highly accidental choice with regard to Martin Rach's enormous collection behind for obsessive lovers in experimental music (also known as Mirth Naarc). First of them was Piano Attic (2016), an intricate mix of modern piano music with a strong inclination toward electro-acoustic music and elaborated noise. A second was Late Autumn Quartets (2016), a fine flow of post-classical/chamber music work with dodges into noisy bursts and more electronics.
Given that the flow being quite similar related to the last mentioned issue Doubling Moons chimes as his first issue in a new decade (but not the sole issue anymore) due to blurred borders between foggy chamber music, slow motion induced droning and flashback filled, crackled ambient like early wondrous Tim Hecker used to do (from Haunt Me Haunt Me Do It Again to Mirages) to amplified, tectonic noise resonances. In a word, it is a bloody great, absolutely accomplished release which on the other side, fortunately, is just a span in the continuing trajectory of the artist. After that let's be ready to immerse into his subsequent issue called Naihtyme. And the previous ones should be shed light upon again.
