MOTE 044EP
|
Amsterdam-based producer Jeff Rushin's Mote Evolver debut opens with "Coda," which flawlessly builds anticipation as a shivering sequence slowly creeps in and out of the listener's headspace, accompanied by sharp claps and huge subterranean kicks. "Facing the Truth" combines the same commanding kick sound with busy cymbal shivers. "Enigma" applies Rushin's calm but forceful approach to what feels like a journey through a forest of translucent filaments. "A Figment of His Imagination" has the EP's hardest edge, with intense hydraulic pumping and titanium-plated industrial pounding, yet Rushin's deft programming and arranging skills elevate the track beyond a rote exercise in aggression.
