Remnants

by Downscope

supported by

Owen DeVivo Complex simplicity of sound with curious noise and sonic debris commands a reality of floating thru an old warehouse a few inches off the wooden floor, decades after the machines have been relocated to the scrapyard. Top notch dub techno here. Favorite track: Ice Lab.

about

Paying homage to old school dub techno pioneers Mark Ernestus / Moritz von Oswald (Maurizio) and Rod Modell (Deepchord), I embark on a hiss-filled minimalist journey called "Remnants." This album was created with an MU-based modular system, effects pedals and a drum machine, recorded with reel to reel analog tape for added warmth and imperfection. One-take sessions were recorded live with happy accidents followed by minimal post edits.
Alternate versions of "Ice Lab" are available on another release called "Ice Lab (versions)" downscope.bandcamp.com/album/ice-lab-versions
