When Ghostly International spawned the Spectral Sound imprint nearly a decade ago,
Sam Valenti
and
Matthew Dear
conceived the label as the dark, dancefloor-oriented alter-ego of Ghostly's eclectic, album-based sound -- a home for, as Matthew Dear calls it, body music for the mind. Now run by Spectral producer/DJ
Ryan Elliott
alongside co-founder Dear, the label has solidified its image as Ghostly's leaner, meaner brother. Which brings us to the Elliott-curated
Document
compilation: it's a calling card, the Detroit-bred Berliner explains, a battle flag carried into a new decade.
Document
, in other words, is the ultimate Spectral Sound manifesto, mingling Spectral's old guard (
Audion
,
Hieroglyphic Being
,
James T. Cotton
) with new blood (
Kate Simko
,
Seth Troxler
,
Lee Curtiss
) and a few artists who straddle both worlds (
Lawrence
,
Bodycode
with
Lerato
). An overall aesthetic is hard to describe, but the Spectral vision lurks in the music's details: the way the bass-line ricochets between the crackling snares of Lawrence's "Divided" (
Kassem Mosse
Remix) like a pinball; the skyline-spanning groove of Ryan Crosson's "Don't Look Further"; and the thoughtful organ that hums below the record-closing "She Only Looks At You" by newcomer
Gadi Mizrahi
.
Document
captures Spectral Sound circa 2010, at a peak in the label's almost decade-long evolution. And although Spectral Sound's sonic footprint is forever in flux, its mission has been the same since day one: to provide uncompromising, forward-thinking, dancefloor-oriented music that's relevant and cutting-edge on a global scale that also reflects their Midwestern roots. As a compilation of all things Spectral,
Document
does just that. Other artists include
Mike Parker
and
Martinez
.
