The free EP Was Here by Teus on the Bump Foot netlabel contains five tracks of rhythmic atmospheric music. It’s the sort of tension-building underscoring that informs high-minded thrillers. You can hear echoes of John Carpenter’s haunted nursery melodies in “Quiet” (MP3) and the whistling in “Bruno” can’t help but bring to mind Ennio Morricone, though here it’s updated with glitchy percussion (MP3). The album’s title is unfortunately significant, as Teus (born Frolov Dmitrii) reportedly passed away in September at the age of 27. More info at bumpfoot.net.
