Certain emotions turn false as soon as one articulates them, No Seas had learned from bitter experience. He was subjecting his new emotion to the acid test. No Seas, the newest project from guitarist/composer Alexei Orechin. A tapestry of crystallized melodies, waves of magnetic hiss, and compositions revolving around solo guitar and tapes. Debut EP Elle Temporary available on cassette on Overfold Records. https://soundcloud.com/alexeiorechin http://mechanicalforestsound.blogspot.ca/2016/04/recording-no-seas.html http://www.noseas.bandcamp.com/ . 10:00 . Shimmer Crush allows dark-matter to interact with the tiniest dust and drone particles. Emotive and translucent, solemn and surreal......minute glitch tentacles sway back and forth in an enigmatic haze.' (igloo magazine) Her songs form a narrative as a soundtrack to life and experiences, featuring simple, raw, experimental electronic compositions that are accented by haunting vocalizations and spoken word to create thoughtful sound. Described by i die: you die as music that incorporates 'cicada-like clicks trickling through soupy pads' with 'discordant breaks and pinched waveforms', influences of IDM, minimal techno, soundtracks, industrial, post rock, ambient and experimental electronics are clearly reflected throughout. 'Offering immediate beauty with an underlying current of danger', (a closer listen), there is a dreamy quality to her sound that will take you on a journey meant to resonate and inspire. https://shimmercrush.wordpress.com/ music: http://crimeleague.bandcamp.com/album/these-four-walls video: https://vimeo.com/117016204 . 11:00 . l’ombre (stephen sawyer) plays atmospheric rhythmic ambient. He creates abstract collages that are pieced together to form fragile compositions. Melancholic melodies from the beginning of the set will fade into dissonant noise as light gives way to shadows. http://www.lombre.ca/ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
