Nicolas Bougaïeff presents his new EP on seminal British imprint NovaMute. Cognitive Resonance explores elements of acid, gabber, and techno through a compositional lens, drawing on the artist's love for avant-garde forms and long-standing relationship with the electronic music community. The title track lays out long, expansive phrases and warped crescendos to create a disorienting structure, whilst distant harmonies, distorted kick drums and shattering effects merge into a hypnotic form on "Truthful Hyperbole". Lastly, "Fake News" mangles a sense of rhythmic familiarity, disrupting the 4/4 beat with a complex meter and sinister melody.
