Description:The third album from the Norwegian masters of ambient electroacoustics has been under construction for three years. As usual, Kai Mikalsen has invited friends to lay instumental improvisations over his mix of soundscapes of processed sounds from common objects, location recordings and analogue synth loops. The result is refreshingly open and acoustic. And you’ll probably experience music never heard before. To some eerie, but to others pure beauty.
"The third full-length release from Norway's Kobi...one of the best and most unique electronic noise artists that we have heard in the twenty-first century. The appropriately titled Acousticks presents what we would expect from Kobi...odd, peculiar, spooky, unpredictable noise compositions with plenty of strange overtones. Totally unconventional stuff obviously created without any consideration whatsoever for commercial appeal. The music is so precise and well-recorded that it can be deceptively inviting. All kinds of odd sounds and effects blur and transform into one another as these seven tracks float by. The music of Kobi is hypnotic, absorbing, and mentally challenging. These seven tracks have abstract names that somehow seem very appropriate and accidental. Turn this sucker up really, really loud...and you'll feel like you're sure to feel like you're tripping your brains out on something. Totally cool stuff. Highly recommended. (Rating: 5+++)."
