Uwe Zahn (aka Arovane) and Taylor Deupree are favorite musicians of mine, so I was excited to learn they have a new collaborative album due out. Thus far we have only one track to go by, but it’s endlessly loopable. The song, an instrumental, is titled “Pfad_Onset.”
The cut balances glitchy foreground sounds that seem like both errant signals and plucked strings at the same time, all against a shimmering, droning backdrop that gains considerable depth upon repeated listens. The album is titled Skal_Ghost and it comes out on Deupree’s record label, 12k, this coming week, on November 4.
