Movements - (33:57) 90 BPM
Review: Following on from the Par Avion album that surfaced on Ghostly last year, Xeno and Oaklander return to the scene of the crime with more towering pulses of synthesiser tone that peal out a kind of avant garde electro pop without the rhythm section. It's hugely atmospheric stuff that begins in more strung out, experimental territory as the tale unfolds over thirty continuous minutes, coalescing into heart-rending moments before melting away to a more obtuse kind of noise and back again. It's a piece that could have easily been broken down into component tracks, so distinct are the different phases of "Movements", but in the end this immersive start-to-finish listening experience is clearly what the tenacious duo were aiming for.
