Regosphere<\/a> & Extraordinary Pigeons<\/a> – Split C20<\/p>\n

Self Released<\/a><\/p>\n

Here’s yet another great release from Regosphere this time splitting things up with the unfortunately named Extraordinary Pigeons. The latter of which I am not familiar with, yet Regosphere has been churning out some impressive material as of late and this tape delivers just as well as his previous material and is a good pairing of artists that while not too similar, are quite complimentary.<\/p>\n

Extraordinary Pigeons is up first with the long drone track entitled Spirits of the Ice Forest<\/i>. It’s a rather typical track but provides a consistent atmosphere that is comforting to hear. These are icy cold metallic drones that stay quite persistent throughout the composition. About mid-way into the piece an acoustic guitar joins in but somehow they succeed in having it mesh together tactfully.<\/p>\n

Regosphere really rips it up here, kicking things off with the noisier Nervous Reaction<\/i> which is a churning death-noise assault. The track slowly evolves from noise into synth drones stopping just short of where the following track entitled Analog Swamp (Born in Slime)<\/i> picks up. There is actually a pause as these are two separate tracks but the sound design leading one into the other, the similarities make for a great segue.<\/p>\n

Definitely a solid tape, I also dig the artwork although I’m not sure how well it represents the dark sounds here, but the printing is top-notch and I got a purple tape which I thought was kinda cool. Great release and a pairing of artists who show an effort and craft for their sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
