About this product
Is a Soft Generator a Soft Machine? Judging by the beautifully blossoming splatterpulse of the opening InchAckInch, with it's filters peeking (and peaking) over a rainbow-hued, synthetic horizon, such a generator of pillowy delight would no doubt do William Burroughs proud. The sounds percolating herein do in fact make for machines of loving grace, the effect startling enough but strangely soothing, circuits doing penance to both themselves and the worshipping listener. Midway through InchAckInch, you're taken on a tour of (post)-Namlook-like reverie, where temporal tides shift and your mind seems to literally bisect outer space; space-time folds as blips, phizzes, and squirts arc upon a very Inoue-esque soundstage, augmented by faux-dub echo that shimmers throughout and descends back to earth like steel rain. InchKnowInch brings home the beats and sequencer surge with as fine a pedigree as some newly-minted Tangerine Dream b-side, while InchOwlInch channels Delia Derbyshire and the INA-GRM crew thanks to some ingeniously-coined synthetic flutters and weirdly oxygenated chills and frills. The closing InchLedgeInch suggests the listener looks down into the electronic abyss, but what stares back isn't simply dark drones and omniscient tones; rather, there's a stately classical air that posits Ryuichi Sakamoto and Max Richter jamming in an elevator with Johann Johannsen. Funky fugue states, done with considerable aplomb, compositional vigor, and no small amount of atmospheric delight.

The whole point of this record was to share every emotion that I feel, says The Soft Moon's Luis Vasquez. InchNo two songs are the same. It's about existing in the world as a human being and experiencing many emotions and experiences throughout life.Inch And so hence the title Exister, a record rooted in the ecstatic joys and crippling lows that life can throw up and how just hanging on and existing is sometimes all we have. InchExister is my way of saying 'I'm here, deal with it.'Inch Vasquez says. Sonically, this expression is a vast, expansive and potent one. The opening 'Sad Song', which unfurls with a dense brooding atmosphere, Vasquez describes as almost a ballad, while tracks such as 'The Pit' capture the opposite end of the musical spectrum, exploding as a thundering piece of industrial techno complete with gut-churning levels of bass. 'Monster' - a song that follows a human metamorphosis into an unrecognizable and destructive being - seamlessly combines a deeply melodic, almost electro pop, vocal hook with a slow build atmospherics to create something equally beautiful and unsettling. 'Become the Lies' explores the devastating consequences of being lied to by your own family and is a post-punk stomper, merging charging basslines, pummelling drums and snaking guitars, all of which combine explosively. Elsewhere the album runs the gauntlet of everything from ambient to dark wave - features ferocious guest contributions from fish narc and Special Interest's Alli Logot on 'Him' and 'Unforgiven' - all while retaining that distinct tone that unmistakably The Soft Moon

KODE9's grasp on the throat of bass music in 2010 is almost unparalleled. His trend setting record tag, HYPERDUB (home to BURIAL and KING MIDAS SOUND amongst others), is in it's sixth year of viral contagion; he's become a published author on the theory of sound abuse and sonic frequencies being used as weaponry in his book InchSonic Warfare? and his production work has mutated from a marriage of beats and sine waves into a fusion of dance floor Ebonics and discordant synths. Sonically Kode9's InchDJ-KICKS attempts to decipher he tangled state of UK dance music in 2010. The tracklist is heavy on UK funky, broken beat, grime and R&B, but surprisingly light on on the genre Kode9 helped vault into widespread popularity dubstep.
