Z'EV - 'A Handful Of Elements'

CSR182CD (16 November 2013)
CD in jewelcase
Barcode: 5060174955457



With “A Handful Of Elements” Z’EV returns to the “dense, carefully laid and deep drone works” [adnoiseam.net] of “Sum Things” (CSR101CD). However, for this release he has drawn deep from his 40 year old sonic archive (from live performances both instrumental and vocal  to a range of soundscapes from around the world), producing soundtracks to accompany you to the other side of ambient, through the door between your eyes.

Track listing:

1. Terra (12:00)
2. Aqua (12:00)
3. Aer (12:00)
4. Ignis (12:00)
5. Spiritus (12:00)

Reviews:

"In treading a line between real-world vibration and fantasy realms, A Handful Of Elements is able to flex Z’EV’s capabilities as both an extraordinary sonic exorcist – drawing all sorts of lively, resonant demons out of material and space – as well as his knack for a deeply spiritual, all-clanging industrial collage. The album is comprised largely of audio from his own archive of bootleg recordings and field recordings, teasing out the whines of beaten metal into slow and shrill deaths, and embedding the mournful, lo-fi cries of animals behind Z’EV’s own abstract vocal workouts. A new and bizarre world arises out of the blur, but the audio manipulations (re-pitching, slowing down) is subtle enough so that reality still pops up in tiny, eerie glints." (Rock-A-Rolla)
