Narrominded Split LP Series #2

by Hydrus / Kettel

supported by

hello_kind_spirit The lovely contrast between the serious tones of Hydrus and the playful airiness of Kettel compliment each other nicely. A night drive through the city, followed by a day trip out into the countryside. Favorite track: Waking Up Early.

about

The second installment in the split lp series is a Dutch affair, but it has everything it needs and more to soon make name far abroad. Each side of the record contains a complete work clocking in at about twenty minutes. Side A is Chime EP by Hydrus. The four tracks they contributed stand out because of their meticulous production and their wonderful sense of melody and emotion. This is music in the best electronic tradition, blending hiphop, idm, ambient, funk, drone and badass breaks. Hydrus begins this twenty-minute journey with a funky bump and end it in a mess of nervous percussion, splintered to dust. Side B is an altogether positive and quirky piece of work by Kettel. Like most of his work of the last few years, Yellow Baron is exploding with beautiful melody. In six tracks Kettel puts everything to work to make your head bop, to bring a smile to your face and a tear to the corner of your eye. Classic stuff, without losing sense of experiment. The first spring record is here.

This is an undeniably fantastic ambient album. The soundstage Kettel has created is mind-blowingly deep. I also get the feeling that I am looking through a window into someone else's memories while I listen to this, which amazes me. konradpatrick
