Notion Compound by Öspiel x Schwefelgelb

This 4 track EP consists of two tracks by Öspiel and another two by an Öspiel x Schwefelgelb collab. Sequences moving between accentuated percussion and dynamic melody loops over a massive basement of cutting beat grids. Conveying an impression of the reckless brutality of an unstoppable mechanism covered by a cheerful vibrancy, this release is still shaping up in a palette of various shades: sustained and soothing in "Provider", groovy and uplifting in "6-APA", aggressive but playful in "Again" and uncanny but bouncy in "Bloom".
You'll find those cinematic elements and breaks, which are so typical for Öspiel’s sound, as well as the melodic parts which sound somewhat between organic and synthesized. And you'll hear Schwefelgelb’s rawness and minimalism, which makes each single sound stand out.
Despite a subtle echo of EBM’s decay here and there, this release is moving forward in its very own redirection by adding Hypnotic, Groovy and Ambient notions to it. Last but not least the sophisticated mixing and sound design give this release an omnipresent powerful drive.
“Notion Compound” will be released 24th of October on n-PLEX, 140g colored vinyl. Download code is only included with vinyl sales via bandcamp.
