It’s all about space. Not outer space, but the space between sounds. Sharp, grating shards of sound are interspersed with brief dips, pauses and silence. These moments are but brief respites from a brutal sonic assault, a dense, cranial drilling.
It’s also about the space around sounds. The effects of reverb on the scraping metallic adds to depth and dimension to the aural abrasions. Throbbing, buzzing and whirring, ‘Recur’ sees Emptyset forge a stark soundtrack to an industrial world. It’s not pretty, but it has power: feel the force!
