New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Manchester duo Bardsley and Plack return with another succulent blend of electronica and psychoacoustics. We kick off with the epic ANOVA Exam, a pulsating evolving ecosystem of a track, rich in harmonies and layered instrumentation.
Next up, Confused babbles its way into existence, building slowly over a laid-back tempo, and reaching a guitar-overload crescendo of monstrous intent. Ghosts of Rhus starts as a haunting fingerstyle-guitar lullaby before trip-hopping into another dimension of weirdness, with dislocated vocals and strange vibes. Proceedings are closed appropriately with Shutter, a sparse funk-house lament for a wasted life.
Title track ANOVA Exam is featured by two brilliant remixes from Kelton Prima and Haioka ranging from Kelton's deep melodic post-step to Haioka's lush & breathtaking, almost experimental trade mark sounds.
Finally the Bulbs' own rework of ANOVA Exam featuring label mates go nogo's guitarist Eric Schemer pays tribute to some serious shoegazing walls of sound.
