BROOD X CYCLES - SLEEP NAMELESS FEAR (LP)

"NIK COLK VOID (Factory Floor, Carter Tutti Void, NVPR) and ALEXANDER TUCKER (MICROCORPS, NONEXISTENT, Grumbling Fur) new collaborative album as BROOD X CYCLES. In the spring of 2019 Void and Tucker convened at Void's Demna Studio to record two days of modular improvisations. Using their individualised modular cases they connected the two configurations to create one whole system where they could integrate and meld sequences, beats, drones and samples. Key to the duo's process was bringing the organic textures of guitar, cello and voice together with machine rhythms, creating a balance between circuitry and the human body. The duo edited down the raw recordings into their crucial moments, expanding upon the improvisations into eight cohesive pieces. Sleep Nameless Fear carves out a world of heavy percussive patterns, monolithic drones, disembodied voices and noise frequency manipulation into one detailed vortex." (label info)
