various: v five years of artefacts-chapter four

Jonas Kopp, Dadub, Eomac, and Chevel split this fourth EP in Stroboscopic Artefacts' fifth anniversary series. Kopp pumps the drums hard on "Shibu," and its siren-like synths, heavy kicks, and hi-hats make it pure peak-time material. Dadub's "Force Continuum Abuse" begins with sparse and off-kilter percussion before fierce breakbeats cut through the walls of reverb. On "I Am Starting to Believe," Eomac's echoing synths hang free in spacious mid-range, intermittently making way for elusive vocal snippets. Chevel displays his acute focus on percussion and minimalism with "Alicia," working a groove out of tripping drums and metallic percussion.
