Brown White – Gost Zvuk 16
Kassir produce los diez temazos que forman este gran LP, editado por el sello ruso Gost Zvuk para su decimosexta referencia.
Murky, crackly, lo-fi and densely layered, this first full-length excursion from Russian producer Kassir sounds like a snatched recording of a short-wave radio transmission that’s come all the way from Moscow. Seeped in noise-seeped sonic textures, sampled voices, static noise, mind-mangling electronics and immersive, sustained chords, Brown White sees the unheralded producer deliver a mix-tape style journey taking in dust-encrusted techno, drowsy IDM, unsettling cloud-rap beats, weirdo experimental electronica and warped jungle. It’s a seriously enveloping, atmospheric and entertaining sonic trip, and one that should find favour with all those who love unusual and immersive journeys through sound.
