The most compelling part of Karmelloz’s music is the way samples shape themselves to a background of lightly spiraled and synchronized noises. At it’s least, these samples art controlled by the skillful deploy of Karmelloz, but the artist is merely the glass encasing the terrarium, as sounds grow and expand in ways that only can be defined as organic. Not as though their life couldn’t grow upon their own, but it took the listening skills of an expert to play god on Silicon Forest, and that’s exactly what Karmelloz fans get with this new Cleaning Tapes banger. Beyond the spa and weather mapping, Silicon Forest propels Karmelloz (once again by the artist) into a realm of sound that is both biological and technological. There’re restless atmosphere, characters of clicks-and-flicks, crawling of the millipede type, and breezes that feel as cool as the density is thick.
Unfortunately, Bort hit me with Silicon Forest after the reel sold out on Cleaning Tapes, but props to the brehhh right now, ‘cause Karmelloz truly never disappoints, but neither does old Bort, so enjoy below:
