sendai: a smaller divide

Sendai, the collaborative project of Yves De Mey and Peter Van Hoesen, release their second album on Archives Intérieures. Both artists are long-time friends and share a deep passion for exploring the outer limits of the electronic music spectrum. Sendai combines De Mey's skillful extraction of deep and dynamic sounds from his modular synthesizer system with Van Hoesen's keen sense of digital composition and sound design. A Smaller Divide is the result of six months of intense remote collaboration. The album presents both approaches and indicates a fresh intention to take things further. It forms a logical progression to 2012's Geotope, using different musical colors within similar structures. A Smaller Divide articulates a willingness to open up the previous sound canvas, while at the same time remaining uncompromisingly radical in terms of execution and structure.
