rhuarib A phenomenal piece of work. The rhythms, counter melodies, touch of the flamenco mixed with the phat bass. Absolutely lush. Perfect summer album - the flow is divine & it's very, very hard to pick a favourite - the pieces all complement each other perfectly. Amazing. Favorite track: Cold Dark.

ioflow haunting melodies, entwined in spiraling duets. electro-warped pads. low, growling basses. crunchy, organic percussion. synthesizers dance and shimmer; rumbling and sparkling. a sumptuous, seamless blend of storytelling talents in this duo's combined record. Favorite track: 3x7 Part1.

about

Dyadik came crashing onto the scene recently with an epic release from Murya, gunning hard straight off the bat - although admittedly a tough act to follow for anyone brave enough to take the challenge, HRYM - a collaboration project between Weldroid (Touched Music, Section27, Tonatom) and Mikael Fyrek (Kahvi Collective) do it in style with their brand new album titled 'Organik'.

The first track 'Enemy Within' is a blinder and incredibly deceptive. Its relaxed tempo feels like I've been treated to several songs within one track, the way this is split into movements makes me feel like it's very much longer than it actually is. It reflects my love of Boy Record's 'Time Modem' (if you're not familiar please go and acquaint yourselves), early 90s slow and forceful industrial electronica that hits home hard.

Tracks that flow into each other do it well, 'Mark2' into 'Triplicated' is especially pleasant and a textbook example of how it should be done. The latter track is very Bola, a gliding bass-line navigating a piercing & delayed top rhythm that I hesitate to leave.

It's nice to hear a two part piece that have similar themes but are independent in their own right - a throwback to 'Stockholm Syndrome' from Posthuman's 'Syn Emergence'. Not only do these tracks go hand-in-hand but each song on this album feels interlinked, pleasantly answering the calls of the others.

'Diary' is a real ensemble, a true journey in style and feeling that again packs in acts and movements making me feel like this is more of an orchestral visit than an electronic music album. If anything had to stand out from 'Organik' then this one would be it - it's a culmination of everything that's happened before it and even though it's just after centre in the order of things there's a certain finality to it.

True to style 'Detached' enters another phase, the penultimate track radiates very Noir impressions even though overall it's quite a happy piece. There's something lurking in the background here, it's almost dystopian and wouldn't be amiss in some of the best electronic soundtracks of our time - think Éric Serra's score to The Fifth Element and you're along the right lines. This in itself brings back great memories, ready to be merged with new ones as I enjoy the track.

Where many albums would choose to tone things down and start fading out for a final track, 'Cold Dark' does exactly the opposite. It's upbeat and forward-thinking, so much so that afterwards I'm completely ready for another track. I guess that fits with everything here - I'm ready for more and I'll eagerly await the next movement from HRYM.

'Organik' is very crisp, a very modern sound with plenty of respect paid to earlier electronic works like that mentioned above and with real feeling put into it. Its slower tempo lends itself to thoughtful composition rather than epic outbursts of sound, one for very easy-listening.

It goes without saying that with a pretty album comes pretty artwork - geometry abound once again Grid Pattern have crafted something I would be happy to grace my shelf, table or screen as it plays. However with only 150 copies coming out on CD I'd be quick to get one so you had better be too.
