The second installment of a two-part EP for Tresor. Taking its title from one of Brassaï's famous sequence of prints, A Man Dies in the Street Part 2 presents the second round of the eight-track project developed by Sleeparchive (along with three secret locked grooves). As ever, the genius is in the reductive palette, that here Semsroth paints into a rich splay of emotions, mimicking the initial anxious discovery of the body, the curiosity of the gathering crowd, building anticipation through to an aggressive and pummeling sense of realization on the close. But is it at the loss of life, or the loss of spectacle? As Brassaï toys with ambiguity in his photographs, Sleeparchive's music is just as hazy, deep and full of shady nuances.
