  • Experimental techno

Comment: similarly to a recently reviewed album, Potential DifferenSe's Coinchain, which was analogously a part of the discography of COTA303 (and also Russian act), this batch of 9 tracks is also a mix of IDM, synth-pop, and techno. In comparison to the aforementioned album it is more tumultuous, it is more churned-up due to swirling glitches and microscopic noises at the bottom of tracks. At the same time one can relax due to spaced-out progressions at the top of melodic thread, for example, at Sustained In Galossum. Additionally, it can be said it is a bit more distanced from the motorik Krautrock vibe a la Neu!. Behind this astounding issue is a Russian electronic musician Ilya Bitekhtin having been active since the beginning of the 10s.
