Artesian Sounds welcomes Cicada Ensemble to the label with his debut EP ‘Murmuration Clip’, featuring a remix from London-based producer Otik.
The title track is light and nimble, swelling with shimmering arps, weighty subs and no kick drum in sight. ‘Kepler’ layers intricate sound design with head-spinning breaks and an aggressive bassline. ‘Buchla & C7’ is a five minute epic, patiently building to its climax for almost half of the runtime – a true exercise in tension and restraint. Last but not least, Otik’s remix of Kepler slows the original, combining dub infused atmosphere with driving percussion.
