Koen Park - Everything in Shadow [expcd006]
Everything in Shadow, is the new album (and second on Experimedia) by Tokyo/London based Koen Park aka Ian Hawgood.Utilizing a wide array of instruments, sound sources, and tools including vintage keyboards, circuit bent synths, guitars, glockenspiels, samplers, drum machines, live drums, field recordings, effects pedals, tape recorders, and computers, Koen Park creates a hazy sun dried organic electronic sound.Tape saturated modulating synths and subtle guitar washes.Cut-up live drums and crackling micro-rhythms.Playful and calming melodic structures interact with broken hip-hop like rhythms.Fractured field recordings interwoven.Brief interludes of serene melodic drones.All of these elements come together to create, Everything in Shadow, a beautiful and nostalgic album, masterfully crafted with touches of intentional imperfection that give the album a refreshing organic feel.Your order of the limited edition packaged CD includes immediate bonus downloads of the album in highest quality MP3 and/or lossless FLAC formats so that you may begin to enjoy the album before your package arrives. And once again this release comes pacakged in Experimedia's custom signature slim tall 3 panel eco-wallet package.
