Bite : Room [bsc_038]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on October 7, 2013

“Multi-talented Spanish producer and videographer José Barrera (aka Bite) delivers Room, his second outstanding EP for basic_sounds. Known for his dark immersive ambient drones Bite delivers a passionate balance between eerie and warmth.

The first titled track, ‘Room 01’ is a dark, contemplative soundscape with digital organic quirks combined with buzzing, alluding to bleak feelings regarding the state of the world. This concept is reinforced in Barrera’s video. ‘Room 02’ is another eerie track with slow static pulses and alien-like rattlesnake sounds, ultimately creating a deep immersive environment. ‘Room 03’ is a calming warm ambient track with delicate floating synth strings combined with field recordings of rain and birds. ‘Room 04’ is an other-worldly dub track with pulsating pads and distant reverberations. Closing this release, ‘Room 05’ is a clinical, Raster Noton style track with reductive clicks and whirrs juxtaposed with warm pulsing pads. Overall, another stunning polished release from Bite.”

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on October 4, 2013

“Cly/Suva puts out his first release on Cold Fiction Music label with a 4 track Ep filed with a hidden talent for smooth Ambient Techno and Dub Techno. The release starts off with the lush and expansive pads of the title track and moves right along into Until The Road with they Dub Techno chords and deep drums. The other 2 tracks also highlight the lush pads and deep dubby chords that Cly/Suva isn’t really known for until now. For fans of our Dub Techno and Ambient Techno releases, this is an Ep that you shouldn’t miss.”
