FROM THE VAULT
RESURRECTING A DOPE RELEASE FROM THE PAST
Their second and last album, “Plasma”, is even more experimental:
A very interesting interview:
LOTUS EATER [STROBOSCOPIC ARTEFACTS]
On the left side, Lucy, creator of deep, dubby, vaporous tracks, and label owner of Stroboscopic Artefacts, renamed Other Facts in 2023. On the right side, Rrose, author of deep, drone-ish, electrifying tracks and label owner of Eaux.
Let’s get ready to rumble!
Many years ago, the two maestros were following each other musically and had first contact in 2013, when Lucy requested a remix to Rrose, before remixing “Waterfall” in turn.
The duo ended up working together closer. They firstly released two EPs called “The Lotus Eaters I and II“, a title brought by Rrose, inspired by Homer’s Odyssey and the recurrent flowers on Stroboscopic Artefacts’ artworks. It finally became the name of the duo, who came with their first album, “Desatura“, in 2018.
“The piece” is neither Rrose’s nor Lucy’s sound, but a fusion of both in a new project, at the same time experimental and intimate. Obviously made for the headphones, with its deep alienating hypnotic repetitions, it also became the material of a live act, carried by extra percussions, that we would have loved to access in the album as bonus versions.
Nonetheless, “Desatura” is a monument of hypnotic techno, made by two well-inspired production lovers and legends of the genre.
