Video Premiere: Nova Scotian Arms – “Gathering/Composition”.
January 4, 2012, 0 comments
Slowly meandering, spaced-out layers of drone and ambient synth pads that at once comfort and subtly unsettle, impressively unfolding arrangements built around encompassing tape loops, gently fading into an invisible, infinite space – with his new record Cult Spectrum, LaGrange, Georgia’s Grant Evans’ (of Hooker Vision and Quiet Evenings) solo endeavor Nova Scotian Arms has readied a tremendously strong example of contemporary synth experimentalism, a brilliant record of total sonic immersion that marks the first truly essential release of 2012.
The superb LP opener “Gathering/Composition” was masterfully visualized by Hobo Cubes‘ Frank Ouellette aka Moduli TV, perfectly capturing the eerie and contemplative temper of Evans’ piece. Watch the video exclusively below.
Cult Spectrum is out tomorrow, January 5, on Digitalis.
