minilog A gem ! One of those unexpected and enchanting albums that shake up the established order and radiate an obvious magnetic presence. Ellis & Groetsch weave a twirling mosaic of liquid, pulsating, throbbing sounds and textures that give the feeling of bathing in a musical amniotic fluid. It is a whole beeping and rattling fauna that stirs under the swirls of ghostly layers and melodic snippets spinning like phosphorescent jellyfish tails. A masterpiece of poetic inventiveness.

about

The Interior Rhythms came about by experimenting with subtracting sound from a mix. Traditionally rhythms are created by -adding- a sound, such as a snare or kick drum, superimposed over other instruments. Here, the rhythm bed was created by subtracting frequencies from the main mix with the use of a rhythmic filter. The opening and closing of the filter carving the rhythm out of the mix by use of negative space.
Paul and Daryl both share a love of hiking in the Pacific Northwest so that became part of the narrative. The goal was to create an impressionistic soundscape of a hike through a rainforest where the focus would slowly change from the exterior world of sounds and images to the interior and back again. The environment is of the natural world, of water and wind, of light and shadow, and the most subtle gradations of sonority and color.
The Interior Rhythms echo, shimmer and vibrate with magic, expanding outward in rippling waves. Let it create an environment for you to swim around in.
