Chra is the artist moniker for Austrian Christina Nemec (Bray, Shampoo Boy). Seamons is the latest missive in her ongoing exploration of suffocating abstract audio. At once designed and falling apart Seamons is rough and crude, a stumbling and staggering electronic expedition where nothing presents itself explicit in intent. It’s a tense obscure record that teases you into it’s peculiar vortex from it’s suggestive nature of exploring the enigma beyond it’s haunted facade.

VICIOUS WATER REGIMES stutters along as an ‘ugly’ mass of grey electronica. CAST(O)RO shines from light from the depths with it’s occasional foray into glistening tones. COLONIA MARINA SERENELLA is a dank squelching backdrop for a dark age. CAST twists tension with flickering electronics chaotic in their perpetual design of order confronting inevitable collapse. LET SHARKS SLEEP is not only a great title but a mind tickling adventure of descending/rising digital dance that builds in intensity with it's relentless repetition. WIDOW WALKS gallops and creaks along a path veiled in whispers. ENGE lunges through time with an air of deep uncertainty. Seamons hovers on the outskirts, crawling out of the speakers with endless surprising turns, few of them comfortable.

Seamons is progressive ambient, not the kind that makes you escape, but rather one you can't escape from. Seamons crawls into the very guts of sound to uncover and unravel the uneasy and unsettling underbelly within.
