Triades by Roland Kayn

Kayn’s electronic works are often characterized by their density, as his cybernetic practices allow material to build from tones to clusters, and finally into his trademark primordial swathes of electronic sound.

‘Triades’, by contrast, is a model of clarity. Drones exist only in crystalline isolation. Plundered sources are inserted nakedly into the mix, undisguised and often unadorned. Effects are used more sparingly, often only to bring certain sounds to the fore momentarily. Startling concrete stabs and shards of found sound are turned in the light, shaping the escalating tension into a near-meditative study in timbre.

"The mystery, the grace, the boundless invention – Kayn’s machine music is a vast catalogue of very human wonder." -The Guardian
