Bitcrush - Shimmer And Fade

Originally released in 2005, 'Shimmer And Fade' was a limited time download EP from n5MD's sub-label En:peg Digital. Within its 448 minutes, bass and guitar arose from the background to a place of prominence and carried the EP's melodic content. This change in form represented an important period in the natural evolution of the Bitcrush sound, a time that found Mike Cadoo transitioning from his post-industrial and IDM beginnings found on Enarc to the more ambient/post-shoegaze direction of 'In Distance.' After years of requests to bring ‘Shimmer And Fade’ back, n5MD has chosen to re-release it as a re-mastered CD which contains four extra tracks not found on the original EP. Limited to 1000, this release will serve as a time capsule of what was yet to come.
