Three serpentine instrumentals by Oroboro comprise
DECISIONS11. The Italian producer, who also soundtracks
experimental theatre in his home town of Cesena, crafts epically
evolving tracks shimmering with microscopic detail and emotional
texture. 'Heart Valve' begins the EP, enveloping the listener in a
kaleidoscope of surging melody and ectopic rhythms. 'Life Drain'
locks into a robust 2-step groove and sidewinds through jagged
peaks and windswept breakdowns via a novel arrangement. The
final track catches Oroboro in a stormy mood as the searching traplike
lurch of 'Armed Concrete' culminates in an audaciously broken
crescendo. Referencing the military-industrialist ruling family of
Giedi Prime from the Science Fiction epic Dune, 'Harkonnen'
meditates on a planet "completely overthrown by human desires,
waiting for the dominant species to die in order to slowly start to
bloom again". Brief but vivid, the auditory palinopsia of
'Harkonnen' burns on long after it ends. The EP lands Friday 13 July
2018.
