With a strong
focus on unique electronic sounddesign and structures, v/a - Vortex
has turned into a solid collection of next level sonic wizardry.
All of the artists involved have dedicated an extremely respectable amount
of time and effort to sculpt their submission until it was perfect.
Could it be possible that one reason for this has to do with the fact
that v/a - Vortex was a compilation that simply needed
to be made?
Let's do a quick rundown to get to know these wonderful artists:
* Hecq,
German sounddesign professional with an admirable discography on labels
such as Hymen, Bnkcrsh, ...
* Otets
Dekan, Zoogoo
and brother Chlorophyll
Fluxbunny, who collaborated intensely on their morphing re-assimilation
monster, and who should be known from previous
NTT releases.
* Circuit
Paralelle, aka Yann Hekate of the Italian
"Hekate Soundsystem", in charge of Anarmonia and related promising
labels and responsible for a completely alien glitchmorph fest.
* Barbarix,
a rising UK artist who could previously be heard on BBC's Mary Anne Hobbs
and Electronic Explorations radio shows, and who's also preparing the
next Entity release.
* Sytrjv,
another relatively unknown though very talented knobtweaker from Rome,
delivering a complex onslaught of dark experimental rhythms.
* Subskan,
whose dark, mindcrashing electronics can assimilate any A.I. mutant from
a distance, and who created some seriously awesome releases on respected
labels such as Belgium's own Ambivalence Records and Mirex.
* La
Peste, head of the French Hangars Liquides label, coined
the musical term "flashcore" and operates in his own personal
sounddimension.
* SDK,
aka Sedarka, who will one day be like Kazumoto Endo,
except better, as his Entity release
so charmingly demonstrates.
* Binray,
who's merciless track got lifted from the cancelled Phalanx project "Hyperion",
and who also brought you a mesmerizing
free release in the past, as well as on labels such as ZOD and Ad
Noiseam.
* Xanopticon,
micro tweaker deluxe, especially known for his insane livesets and ultra-detailed
Liminal Space album on Hymen.
* Inshizzo,
a psytrance vs breakcore duo who rock the Moscow underground partyscene
and run the Acidsamovar label, bringing us a speedcore influenced track.
* Bogdan
Dullsky, aka Quest.Room.Project, a sound project exploring
the strange and the bizarre by superimposing the impossible, as with his
outworldly Entity release "Room
Number".
* Atomhead,
aka yours truly!
