Pixel - The drive

  Quote

pixel’s album `the drive` is meant to be the soundtrack to his imaginary journey by car across the U.S.A., a road movie encoded in the track list. with warm and deep guitar amplifier hiss and feedback in connection with floating rhythms he creates very organic sound patterns. the music might evoke images of deserts, chemical warfare plants, rugged landscapes, rocket takeoffs and hectic suburban night life. but there is an additional level of meaning. pixel invites the listener to discover his mise en abîme - the image behind the image. suggestion and impression interact and develop an astonishing force to attract the listener. the interplay of these two contrary elements allows unusual ways of traveling. ‘the drive’ is the perfect soundtrack for this journey.

 

after `display`(r-n057) and `set your center between your parts in order to`(r-n064) `the drive` is pixel’s third album on raster-noton.

my folder is from the end of january. i'm becoming progressive, forward-thinking listener

12 euros for mp3 download? that's a bit steep! shame, the samples sound really good.

MP3 is £7 on boomkat if you have to go to the digital route. for me it's definitely the best raster noton release in the past six months or so. egeskov is really good at coming up with a unique concept for each album that changes the style just enough to keep it interesting.
