As we’re patiently ready for Rival Consoles’ ninth studio album Panorama from Reminiscence (Jul 4th, Erased Tapes Information), it is time for an additional style of what is coming forward, due to Ryan’s new single “Jupiter”.
Being one of many kings of heavy digital melancholia that maintain you in a chokehold, Rival Consoles delivers an distinctive efficiency that is characterised by each variety and the flexibility to shock listeners. Beginning with a minute-long, synth-heavy build-up, I cherished the change and the four-on-the-floor vitality he introduces afterward, which jogged my memory of Bonobo’s work. One thing that matches curiously within the sonic universe he explores with this new report.
He elaborates, “On the coronary heart of this piece is a name and response. The principle thought is altering, however the response is at all times the identical.
That is linked to life and nature. I needed the music to really feel like supplies, bending, distorting, shimmering, vibrant shards of glass and steel. To me, it feels just like the solar touching objects with its heat and energy. The observe is titled ‘Jupiter’ and references early works of mine referred to as ‘Helios’ and ‘Voyager’, that are all linked to our place within the universe.”
A multidisciplinary artist who could be very concerned on the planet of visible artwork, I wager Ryan has ready an incredible audio-visual present for the launch of Panorama from Reminiscence and I hope I can catch him reside this summer time.
