It brings us much joy to inform you about the next release!
xPhin's "takahashi" is a unique delight, and every single track on this concept album is a certified banger.
It's a wonderful type of minimalistic ambient music, originating in noise, but existing as melodic synth drones with a certain punch to them. That is until you get to the parts of the album where it's a full-blown, face-melting, HNW assault. This album has intricate layers, subtle motifs, and well-thought-out complexity.
In "takahashi", xPhin is a skilled storyteller, taking you on a journey.
Speaking of tales and journeys, the nine tracks on this album might or might not correspond with the nine panels of the album cover. It's up to the listener to decipher and establish the connection. Tell us if you do, please; as the abstract might (and should) resonate differently with each listener.
xPhin is a name you might recall from RZRecords 6 WAY SPLIT, Vol.2 to which he contributed the track Dark Macadamia. It's a huge pleasure for us to have him back in our ranks; especially for such a wonderful album.
Here's to many more releases such as this one, and peace on earth, obviously.
