about

Aardonyx - The Octopus (Part 1) *Free Download*

The Octopus opens with the atmospheric ‘The Darkness Unfolds’ which bursts into life with analogue synths and syncopated breaks. Track 2, ‘Hole’ abruptly follows with sharp precise drums and sinister growls leaving space between phrases to create movement and keep the listener on edge.

The EP continues in a similar vein with ‘Six Steps to Escape’ which maintains the energy with rolling breaks and heavy toms interjecting to attack the senses. Next the EP sees a turn in a different direction with the minimal half-time tune ‘Under’.

Part 1 is finally concluded with another dark half-time tune ‘Down to Nothing’ which contains a similar sound pallet, bringing the ep to a close with a patient murky swagger.
