Reveal in Finder

Sunken Foal returns for his 9th studio album but first on FES with Reveal in Finder. There’s a certain vintage aesthetic to much of what’s going on here. Pianos and stringed instruments meet bubbling 808 percussion sounds, bass guitar and fizzy sample work. Talk boxes and vocoders play a role, while 'Siel Orchestra' glints and chunky 'Moog' squelches adorn the rest. Using algorithmic sequencing methods to investigate the structural forms of various styles of rhythm, tone and melody, then sculpting the results into a kind of mechanical psychedelic studio-pop, Dunk delivers as always with this latest album as probably his best yet.
