glued on thin memories is sabi's first release on boltfish
recordings and his debut solo full-length cd release. it ranges
widely in style and pace, from electronica and idm tracks to
ambient pieces and processed piano interludes. however, despite
this diversity, the album retains a strong sense of continuity
throughout. many of the tracks are seamlessly mixed into one
another and are held together by common sonic characteristics,
most notably an organic quality to the sounds and arrangements, a
warmth and depth to the tones and textures, and a highly developed
use of melody and harmonic progression.
tracks such as halfspine, screaming bulb and mote diver are
classic melodic electronica, mixing glowing synth lines with
crunchy beats and clicky rhythms. the title track and burning on
a tiny black lake are more minimal, fuzzy and melancholy piano
melodies emerging from a bed of static and granular textures.
suspended monks, blurred bolt and signals left are lushly textured
ambient tracks, layering piano with processed field recordings and
drones, whilst three blind queens in cyan blends found sounds and
grainy textures with atmospheric synthesizer chords, pads and
discrete rhythmic elements. the album also features sabiÆs remix
of the track mano by leon somov feat. jazzu.
