Next in my ears is a CD from Anonymeye on Sound & Fury and it sounds great actually. It's called 'The Disambiguation of Anonymeye'. The first couple of numbers are analogue synthesizer workouts that really pricked my ears up, then a total contrast on 'Hill Loop' he's plucking away at his steel string acoustic guitar then slowly layers of analogue synth buzz build up. As the album progresses it really becomes apparent how well Andrew Tuttle combines the electronic and organic sounds to work in total harmony. I'm digging a lot of the synth tones and pulses on here.

Second album from Andrew Tuttle, aka Anonymeye.
Though still peppered with his rustic steel-string guitar,
The Disambiguation of Anonymeye
sees Tuttle experimenting with analogue synths,
creating a multifacteted listening experience of
deep, dense drones and shimmering overtones.
press:
The tension between the mechanic and organic
in Anonymeye has always been significant -
previous releases on sound&fury, hellosQuare, CURT and Half/Theory
saw Andrew Tuttle's steel string acoustic dismantled in various ways.
However, on The Disambiguation of Anonymeye,
Tuttle has opted not to incorporate each as an individual technique,
but rather to pilot the progression of this album around their interaction.
The first two tracks clock under two minutes each, and both feature
the brutal manipulation of saw tones. These give way, immediately and arrestingly,
to the measured familiarity of Tuttle's guitar:
a masterstroke in the album's construction. As a result, the album becomes
a seething, live mess of sounds, combating for attention -
a fascinating, and occasionally beautiful thing to hear.
