Hypnos/Foundry release: Various Artists - 360°

["M. Griffin" <mgriffin@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Artist:     Various
Title:     360°
Catalog #:  fou.15
Hypnos/Foundry compact disc

This new compilation from The Foundry & Hypnos moves between minimal
ambience and warm, atmospheric experimentalism.  A nice collection
of trippy (and yet very listenable) soundwork.

The Foundry says... This compilation has as its center point a
story fragment, a series of episodes taking our narrator through an
enigmatic arc, an arc becoming a circle, an arc of 360°.

Tracks draw on a variety of electronic music flavours, from ambient
electronica to microsound and glitch.  Contributors to 360° are, in
order of appearance: Rhomb (releases on The Foundry and Archipelago
imprint), eM (releases on The Foundry, Archipelago and Fallt),
Jonathan Hughes (formerly Subspace with release on Sunburst Fifty),
High Skies (Mat Jarvis, formerly Gas on Emit), Seofon with Mark Van
Hoen (Seofon is a member of Ambient Temple of Imagination as well
as a solo artist; Mark Van Hoen has released work as Locust and
under his own name on Touch), Sketch (releases on Apollo and on End
of Hum), Thermal (releases on his own Boxman label and Archipelago
imprint), and Kim Cascone (releases on Ritornell and Digital Narcis
among many others). Quite a range of talented artists!
