about

Eurorack electronics, feedback, sampling, processing, recorded at Pulsewidth summer 2021.

ARCANE DEVICE Circuit Dreams (Pulsewidth PW013; US) Isolationism’s been idea-food for David Lee Myers, who has been on a helluva productive streak lately, made more remarkable by the fact that this recent clutch of recordings has not suffered for lack of innovation or scope. This latest Pulsewidth missive as Arcane Device finds him once again rending our expectations asunder, unleashing his full arsenal of electronic ways and means in another devastating montage of sound and vision. Simply put, it’s a veritable bleepfest. That’s not to say that Myers can’t tread down more contemplative, spacier paths: “Circumstances/Consequences” is an aviary/bestiary of chirps, trills, ringing things, and irising oscillations, glimpsing the Cluster of disintegrating ships at the event horizon. “Reversible Cups” mitigates the starshine for more oceanic depths, tones like buoys bobbing on tumultuous, viscous seas while replicant seagulls divebomb for shimmering plankton. “Tapioca Wrap” feels like Myers is tirelessly wrestling tones from his machine’s constipated innards, relieving them of their globular, analog enzymes as they hack out some off-kilter, phlegmatic grooves. And on “Particularly Hard Hit” (Myers’ titular wordplay remains as devilishly inventive as his sonic artwork), loopy electronic currents and eddies expand ever outwards, stagger in a drunken haze, and collapse in a heap right at your feet. You leave gobsmacked, overwhelmed by the sheer audacity on display, thanking the heavens for Myers and his always-intoxicating aural absinthe. - Darren Bergstein, DMG
