Elements Album Cover, by Evil Gima
Announcing Elements by Experimental Band Evil Gima
Working with Jorge Martinez on Elements has been both rewarding and demanding.
We aimed to create experimental music with intention and symmetry, not just layered noise.
Somehow, we manage to push each other into stranger, more affecting places, sometimes unsettling, weird, magical, or blown-out.
We went for broke with this record. It helps to be bold in saying it: We want to create experimental music stops you in your chair.
Elements is our next iteration. We hope it moves something deep within you, as it did us.
Play Artful Receives A Bunch More Reviews
Queen City Sounds: The Double Headed Seagull Captures the Joy of Newly Sentient Communication on Ambient IDM Single “Play Artful”
[Play Artful] sounds like music boxes attained intelligence and learned to communicate with each other via electrical wires in on the process of communication in a collective, harmonious process in which every entity involved contributes to a dynamic sound that reflects a joyful spirit sustained for the track’s two minute and thirty-seven seconds run time. Tones pulse slowly, a background wave of low end comes to the foreground in pleasing pulses and the simple but jaunty percussive sounds buoy the energy of all the other elements for a net effect of a gentle momentum that feels like a completion of some kind of journey at the end and arriving at your destination at ease.
