More from PSYTH - www.psyth.com @PsythRecordings twitter.com/PsythRecordings www.facebook.com/PsythRecordings With a delicate urgency driven by a pulsating post-punk bass line, Shards lavishes layer upon rich layer of sound, evoking the cool grooves of Peaking Lights and Chromatics, while a shimmering vocal sample from Rebecca Sawyer adds an otherworldly sense of longing that echoes through the soul of the release. B-side Silhouetted appears more conventional and dance-floor friendly next to Shards, but under the surface is something unique and strangely exotic. A mantra-like melody loop gives a nod to minimalist composer Terry Riley and his solo organ works, while world instruments such as an African kalimba and Tibetan singing bowl only heighten Silhouetted's hypnotic and intoxicating quality even further.
