On the now-in-stasis Surface netlabel, [x] by Audio_z delivers ambient soundscapes of clicking rhythms and whirling tones of light in reverb drenched spaces. While mechanized, these pieces have an emergent organic quality, as if robots, taking over their own evolution, found the concept of a soul interesting and adapted it to their own uses.
All the tracks in this release are simply numbered: x_1 through x_7.
x_1 finds you in a nano-growth chamber during hatch time, mechanical podlings breaking through nutrient containment membranes, moving on to their next stage of assembly.
x_2 wraps echoing signals in the soft children’s voices of something other than human, but not quite angelic.
x_3 showcases a ride on an observation platform, waiting for what’s emerging from the dimensional rift below.
x_4 tags along with a network consciousness in VoIP traffic flowing through undersea, trans-Atlantic cabling.
x_5 documents an assembly line spirit in the dead of night, preparing a surprise for tomorrow’s unwelcome workers.
x_6 exists in the signals recorded at the intersection of human neurons and the electrodes implanted by medical bots seeking to discover what makes organic life tick.
x_7 is a field recording of a rainy afternoon in a post-human future.
You can download [x] from the Surfaces archive, along with many other exceptional and unsettling ambient releases.
