Raw and dusty beatcraft for fans of Bullion, fuzzed-up psych and the like. A follow
up to Dimlite’s ‘Grimm Reality’ LP for No-Again Records** “The songs on Abscission
stem from the same time and place(s) as Grimm Reality. Recorded in bedrooms, on
livingroom floors and in Frankenstein labs between 2009 and 2011, they offer the same
sensation of stumbling into a parallel universe as the album did, a place where all
things tick and feel a tad different from the way we’d expect them to, without being
entirely sure why. Right in front there’s the cutting, typically free-spirited rhythm
section, duelling with fuzzy bass and guitar tones; all around it: the semi-synthetic
carpet of harmony, melody and noise, providing the atmosphere characteristic of
Grimm’s productions. And then, on some songs, Dimlite’s admittedly strange and rarely
unaltered voice, blurting out wavering, train-of-thought vocals and garnishment.
These elements, plus the ever-changing nature of each song, make Abscission a curious
place worth visiting and sending postcards from.
