Info:

Vactrol Park, The Collaborative Endeavor Between Kyle Martin (land Of Light) And Guido Zen (brain Machine), Returns To The Esp Institute With Ii, Rounding Out The Second Half Of Their Ep Series. For This Installment, A Sojourn Was Made To Stockholm To Record At The Computer Music Mecca, Ems (elektronmusikstudion), Where The Artists Had The Opportunity To Experiment Extensively With The Legendary Buchla 200 Modular And Serge Modular, Two Of The Rarest And Most Pornographic Modular Synthesizers In Existence. While Both Instruments Originate From California (buchla In Berkeley As A Commission From Pioneer Morton Subotnik, And Serge At The California Institute Of The Arts), The Music Vactrol Park Draws From These Machines Is Far From Warm And Sunny. Akin To Their Predecessors On The 2015 Debut I, These Works Materialize A Level Of Taste And Measure Of Craft That’s Unattainable By Most, Each Retaining An Individual Cinematic Approach Yet Working Collectively Toward One Consummate Goal—paralysis.
