Area C is Erik Carlson, a one-man guitar loops and effects maestro that sounds like the work of some strange rock band. His compositions examine the texture and tonal characteristics of sound, working with live loops, their cyclical relationships, and the details of their decay over time. On the title track a supreme motorik groove is navigated. Looped guitars slither and sway, constructing dark melodies in propulsive rhythms to a mesmerising krautrockscape which brings to mind prime Cologne/Dusseldorf axis jams. The flip is more blissful and calm, concerned more with texture and mood where layers are looped and smeared, rhythms pulse and lope, a dreamy ambient post rock world of darkness and mystery. An expansive, rich sonic soundworld. Included on the additional multimedia CD are exclusive videos for 'Trick with a knife' & 'That spark'. Two beautiful visual representations of dream-like states that perfectly compliment the tracks. The three tracks from the 7" are also on the CD. VERY limited edition package of numbered clear vinyl lathe cut 7" and multimedia CD. Both in full colour wraparound picture sleeve. June 2007, TR003.
