Patrick Higgins - “Pointillist” “Pointillist”

·

P-Higgs is back, and shit got WAY weird in a WAY-WAY good WAY! STEREO is the debut release under his given name, Patrick Higgins, as a double cassette of picks and pines on Words+Dreams. And you can tell he been hanging out with the ZS crew (Diamond Terrifier, Hubble) —err, actually he’s in ZS right now doing (of course) all sorts of good.

“Pointillist” is just a total juxtaposition of Patrick’s Bachanalia suites. Yet, I find it catchier, in a feverish sort of way. Weirdly, it almost sounds modular driven, as if he tried to cover a M. Geddes jam, yeah? This is like the eighth time I’m hearing this, and it’s just so encroaching. Like, slimy in a nylon-string (maybe?) sorta way. Crawling. Creeping. Put this on for Trick-or-Treaters come Beggar’s Night. But use this SoundCloud, which is limited to stereo. The quadraphonic version of Patrick Higgins’ STEREO three-part double cassette will be dropping hard on Words+Dreams November 8.
