Review – Surface Tension (murmur records) -2011-komakino zine

 

i8u is France Jobin, from Montreal, Canada.
Her discography is pretty impressive (cfr Discogs), and this 3 sound-suites release on Murmur records drives the listener straight into the vibrating suspension of senses, now all fused as one unique.
Roger beeps (loads of), imperceptible glitch, subtle grey shades of drone music, all differently seraphic. Instrumental, more like an aural trip, than a mere hypnosis state. Subliminal and tense. Luminance microsounds which embrace your neck and infiltrate you into the hypothalamus. You should play this on your stereo, and play it at loudest volume possible: the whole room would start vibrating, you’re going experience a one hour preview of after-life, but your dog would eventually die of acute deafness and the neighborhood would stop talking to you.
