THN013 >> BLAMSTRAIN - KAVEL EP
[09.04.2002 | Deep dubby ambient soundscapes]

Everybody knows the finnish electronic music scene has been
rising continuesly since years and many inspiring artists made
up their way from the northern shores of europe to the headphones
and livingrooms of musically likeminded people. Unlike the usual
way goes with submitting demos to us, Thinner asked Blamstrain
for permission of releasing those tracks as they weren't send
to us originally, but found by me on Blamstrains webspace hosted
by the big finnish katastro.fi collective. I was really keen in
getting those tracks for Thinner as they really mean much to me.
I hardly havent heard such original masterpieces of reverbed
soulful dub ambience which have a unique deepness and swabs of
nordic melancholy. To my big surprise Blamstrain told me that he
is only 16 years old and known already from being a member of the
Tpolm collective and operator of the northern distributor
suojain.com (distributes mostly finnish idm records). Concerning the
music it's very original cold ambient dub which reminds me strongly
of the early output of Vertical Form (likely "Pub" to be mentioned
here) or the spheres that Vladislav Delay does. Very inspiring and
catchy scapes which make you escaping from your usual feelings when
listening to dub electronica. Tender freezing layers out of the heart.
On "Reimari" frozen fragments of icy layers tickle your ears,
underlined with spacey voices and heavy bassy beats. The music reminds
Blamstrain of the windy climate when sailing on a lake by boat. The
fragile "Nyt" (engl. "now") scrapes the crumbs off the platter while
subtle sine volcanos erupt and flow. Juho told me he titled it "Nyt"
more out of surprise during the composing, since he began to like the
track. The lofi glitch sound of "Kuluntalahti" makes me feel see
positive lights underneath the heavy clouds of melancholy. Blamstrain
used to live in the small village called "Kuluntalahti", i guess it
maybe kind of rememberance to childhood days. On "Misfire" time seems
to stand still in this sonic environment. You can hear tapping noise
like raindrops which is dropping from limestones. Slowly dampened
picks of a melody arises together with cuts and queues of other fx.
Juho teached me there's a relation to misfiring.net going for that
track title.
