Dropping pedals to nurture the tender foreground of an ever-awakening hopeful landscape. Post digital sputtering ala the late 90’s glitch movement, mixed with an ambient attitude, interwoven into a tapestry of cosmic ease and passive conventional comfort. Cordell Klier shines as usual with this breezy spring-inspired document...

| Dingo - No Duck [CYC-014]
The debute release from Cyclene's newest electronic duo Dingo. The group uses samples of sound from various sources including field recordings of natural sound, previously recorded material, acoustic and 'circuit bent' instruments. These raw sounds are then processed digitally with laptop and output to a mixer. From there the sound is resampled into a Roland sampler and reprocessed for output. This process creates an ever changing soundscape of different textures and tonality.
