Smith, Kaitlyn Aurelia - Euclid CD

SKU 28-WVNL74301.2
"Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith composes her swirling, colorful electronic songs on Buchla synthesizers, particularly the portable, user-friendly Music Easel. Her warm, vibrant music inevitably recalls the work of Buchla masters such as Suzanne Ciani and Laurie Spiegel, but it's playful and exuberant enough to land her opening gigs for Dan Deacon and Animal Collective. It's bubbly and tranquil enough to elicit comparisons to 21st century underground synthesizer artists such as Panabrite or Dolphins into the Future, but Smith's music is still a bit too hyperactive to really label ambient or new age, even though it generally doesn't include drums. She allows the oscillating electronic tones to ebb and flow like waves, and they have fluid, natural rhythms rather than quantized beat structures. Ears features a greater presence of Smith's warped vocals than on 2015's Euclid, and more often than not, they seem to speak a subconscious alien language rather than recognizable English words."-AllMusic

Average Rating

Too often bands and records that go under a progressive umbrella are pretty safe and not really pushing boundaries. Several Zs records may not be a comfortable listen at times, but they almost always reveal new possibilities. Same goes for this one and from a rock perspective there's a lot of intoxicatingly fun stuff going on.
