New release: sima - a / b

Hello WATMM! Trying to get our latest digital release around on the web. :-)

Our label is called Metri, and our first release is by the mysterious "sima".

"a / b" is the first iteration of the letter-EPs, a series of 4-track releases exploring a less common aesthetic within the chipmusic / micromusic-genre.

First half of the EP is a brutal techno onslaught based around improvised Gameboy audio, live-processed by a handful of effects. Sparse erratic rhythms paired with harsh drones and deep basstones make up this quite challenging part of the release.

The b-side is filled with classic clicks & cuts-style rhythms. It uses the same improvisational techniques from the previous two tracks, but with different software running on the console.

All tracks were produced from improvisation sessions using two Gameboys through DSP-effects.

We at Metri hope you appreciate this release and look forward to the next in the series, which will be released in February.

This EP is download-only and costs a minimum of 2€ via Bandcamp.
