A single, almost subliminal drone hovers for an eternity, interrupted only by vague crackles of digital distortion, forms ‘The Void’. This alone is almost sufficient to induce a fugue-like state. Slowly, you become attuned to the details, the textures, the resonances and irregularities in the sounds.
‘The Expanse’ lives up to its title, 12 minutes of sound of indeterminate – but possibly liquid – origin, circling around and pushing almost imperceptibly into the listener’s psyche. Subliminally penetrating and curiously powerful.
