Taking over our next instalment, Tokyo's sensation Elli Arakawa
punches in the series with two hours of full-immersion atmospheric
techno and deep, dubbed-out folds. Running the gamut elegantly from
textured tapestries of sound to kaleidoscopic 4x4 wares, through
acid-drenched extrapolations and further poetic drifts across spacious
sonic wildlands, Arakawa's mix eases us in an ambiguous realm where
sheer DJ functionality rubs shoulders with ethereal abstraction and
hyperconscious escapology. One for the lovers of breath-holding dives
and riveting techno panoramas.
