Harm
Stryker - s/t 3" CDr
Harm Stryker is Kelly Norse and Kenneth Yates
Harm
Stryker's latest s/t 3" CDr for PG is music for condemned, boarded
up and forgotten spaces. Part requiem for our architectural history,
part vitriol-fueled sound in opposition to the box stores, condominiums,
and gentrified, cookie cutter housing taking it's place. The single
track begins as a gentle drone that quickly builds to glitched
out swatches of sonic energy that sway and move with a fluidity
and grace that is Harm Stryker's signature.
This limited release for PG is a one time pressing of 100 sale
copies, 10 promotional copies.
“"This is a fully-realized,
borderline epic piece comprising electronic drones, ambience,
noise, and knob-twiddlling euphoria. Never too over-the-top
or understated, the duo function as close to a single mind as
you could ever hope to achieve in this genre - the soundscapes
one will lay out always compliment what the other is doing to
perfection, weaving and melding together in sublime fashion."
- Outer Space Gamelan
“"Highly dynamic electronic drone
overlaid with colourful barbs" -The Sound Projector
(UK)
“"Textured noises and a cut-up approach
to sonic architecture are the cornerstones of the duo's aesthetic
-- they eschew overly harsh noises, for the most part, in favor
of urban sound bites and glitch-laden noises, assembling the
pieces in layers that flow freely in terms of texture and density.
Over the full length of the piece, they incorporate a number
of extremely different and interesting sounds, including screechy
tape manipulation, found sound, and processed electronics --
it all adds up in a striking way, with an evolution of sound
that remains vital and interesting right up to the unexpected
ending"” -Dead Angel
