American composer Don Hill has been exploring the darker territories of ambient under the name Porteur De L'Image over the years. Now the Chicago-based artist has released a debut album under the alternative name Millipede. Compared to the explorations of aforementioned Porteur De L'Image, Don Hill as Millipede circulates in more beat-driven sound worlds with rhyhtm structures that spans from IDM-textures to more discreet pulses of clicking pulses. The overall style still points towards the ambient scene, yet the soundscapes isn't dark or threatening. The strength of Milipede is the artists ability to create deep otherworldy ambience, that sometimes moves into harsher expressions not far away from IDM-legends Gridlock. Anyone interested in Gridlock or ambient-driven IDM should definitely check this work out. Music to dive deeply into. Mesmerising! |
