About the release
ʻRecedingʼ was composed from November 2011 to January 2012 using a couple of piano samples recorded in a disused windmill. Those samples were later processed, deconstructed and partially removed from the compositions to become empty shells revealed by the sound world created around them, thus leaving indirect traces of their former existence.
The compositional process behind the EP was informed by various conversations about the concept of rhizome, phase differentiation and deterritorialization. Tones and shapes were often mutated and/or cross-pollinated from one track to another, serving as new points of departures as the EP was growing into its present form.

thanks taylor, sam and ralph:)

some great reviews already...

"“the EP sounds more like an electronic work, as hums and bright chords are accompanied by happy crackle and digital bells. The pops and bings turn out to have more of a presence than the identifiable elements, producing a sense of wonder.”
- richard allen for a closer listen

"Stuttering away like some old Shuttle 358 track, it has an introspect quality that it absolutely soozing."
- nils quak for resonant strata

"...as if the machines and sound sources have been left overnight to work things out for themselves following a large dose of psilocybin."
- andy gillham for fluid radio
