│ Kwaidan │
│ │
│ │
│ Kwaidan is a one-off project inspired by Masaki Kobayashi's │
│ movie of the same name. Mat Ranson, known more for his work │
│ under his Fisk Industries guise, turns his hand to a longer │
│ format narrative, dispensing with his more usual hip hop styled │
│ rhythms for a more fluid darker style of slow burning techno; │
│ │
│ Awash with kinetic energy, the music bristles with texture and │
│ ghostly treated sound sources, aiming to hint at the eerieness │
│ of Kobayashi's original ghost stories. Two tracks, each close │
│ to 12 minutes, and wound around a similar trajectory, built │
│ upon intricate punchy drum programming, pounding out an │
│ incessant rhythm with waves of sawblade synths vying for │
│ attention against an aggresive low-end bass, trying to rend and │
│ pull apart the forward motion. │
│ │
│ Using the longer time frame, themes are able to fully develop │
│ and be explored with subtle nuance, slowly building up a sense │
│ of dread and claustrophobic foreboding, whilst simultaneously │
│ allowing more space for the sound to breathe, and a more │
│ natural flow and ebb to the listening experience. │
│ │
│ This is the first in our series of digital 12"s - high quality │
│ mastered releases, and available exclusively only as FLAC or │
│ 320kbps MP3s. Immaculately mastered by Twerk in his San │
│ Francisco studio. │
