Huti ゲーム
After a recent output on Moon Glyph, Nicolas Gaunin is back on Artetetra with a new digital EP of tender digital folklore hymns for personal mini-worlds. Known for his composition style centered on interlocking polyrhythms and bidimensional sound fonts advancing the field of a possible 2.0 exotica, in Huti ゲーム Gaunin momentarily abandons his customary musical vocabulary to experiment with an atypical ‘ensemble’ approach: percussions interweave with string samples and synthetic choirs. This chang…

In Flux
Tip! Causa Sui return with the perfect companion to last year's tour de force, "From The Source". Whereas that record was a tightly structured piece of work, that condensed many aspects of the band's sound into a concise 45 minute LP, "In Flux" presents the more loose and impulsive side of Causa Sui. After an introductory suite in classic Causa Sui territory, with deep fuzz riffs and syncopated grooves, things gradually become more outlandish.
The following three vinyl sides see the band chann…

Sulphuric Sonics
Huge Tip! 200 copies. Sulphuric Sonics is Rudolf Eb.er’s new studio album. "The girl's voice on this one was recorded in the backyard of a shinto shrine in the outskirts of Tokyo. I didn't touch those recordings for over ten years. I was too spooked. The girl was maybe 12 to 15 years old and seemingly possessed. It couldn't have been her voice. Her parents (who probably took her to the shrine in hope for relief) did shield her from onlookers. Even my recording equipment failed. I restored some v…
