rival consoles

these compositions, based on melodic structures and patterns abstractly sketched by hand, combine meticulous beats with elegant and anthemic synth phrases that satisfiy our socks fully off.

‘Articulation’ links the record back to the analogue fluidity and colour of 2016’s Night Melody. The division of varying time signatures, intertwined with a complex structure of notes, creates an expression of a moving structure and conjures a dreamy motorik energy. If you're hankering for more of this sort of thing, treat yourself to a dive into the likes of jon hopkins, daniel avery, max cooper and rone. “All across this album, there are truly startling musical moments, unique ideas, and unexpected choices. Rival Consoles has taken the road less traveled by wiping the slate clean, and the result is a refreshing, disarming, brilliant collection of music” 8/10 – pop matters.
