Here's a nice CD by Yvat on that lovely Cactus Island label called Tear Duct. They're them things in your eyes which drop water all over your face when you're feeling sad. Boo hoo... Last night I was feeling sad so I put some misery music on and it right cheered me up it proper did. Here's some melodic atmospheric cruch tronica which will have you swinging from your IDM rafters in no time. I like this label. It's not really putting anything new into the world but it does provide quality crunchy electronic gear which serves it's purpose very well. Like those tear ducts when you feel sad. If you did't have them you're head would explode as the tears would have nowhere to go... that's how you need to think. Laterally.Yvat is from Romania, his debut album - Tear Duct on Cactus Island is made
up of a mechanical and slightly melodic content. Yvat was assisted by his
local gnome community, where they gathered samples and offered advice
and musical know-how. although Yvat claims to have made the music
himself.
The result is a experimental journey into a world of sound and abstract noise.
