XLR8R (US)

(combined review with LINE010 ROEL MEELKOP:…Motion comes in, signaling his presence with a few serialist rustles of the growth before calmly launching into flight. Motion’s leaps encircle pleasant appliances, humming ambient tunes far from Roel’s radical composition. Both are linked in the noises they deploy, yet Motion’s work is more avant-pop while Roel’s is informed by theory. Hopefully, these two can influence each other and find a middle ground in the vast thickets of their sound. – Andrew Jones
