In recent years, following EPs like Surface and Aeon, the Cuenca based artist has changed his canvas. The colder coils of Electro have been replaced with warmer tones. Parallel sees Boris take up the analogue brush for some wondrously vivid soundscapes. The title piece is a distanced work of twilight electronics. Rippling waves blur, resonating arcs soaring into the stratosphere for a deep, ambient and intoxicating track. Label boss Juanpablo is up on remix duty. Percussion scorn is poured onto the original. Samples haunt while acid lines invade and claps maraud for a bruising interpretation. Arcanoid, a trailblazer of Iberian electronics, debuts on Frigio with two takes on the title track (Version 1 & 2). Version1 is broken down and rebuilt, Industrial sorrows swirled in staggered drums and bulging bass. Beats are bolstered for the hardened “Version2.” Melodies orbit, stretching against a fierce gravitational pull as tempos rise into the otherworldly.
The final installment, Tangential, sees Boris Divider return. Clean arpeggios rumble, clicks sinking into a thick analogue soup. Dense bars prowl in a haze before lances of light break to an awe-inspiring future dawn. Cerebral sounds and dancefloor hammers from the heart of Spain.[info from label]
