Forms Of Hands 15

Totally bucking the trend, in April 2015, the highly regarded FORMS OF HANDS label festival went into its 15th annual edition - making it truly oneof- a-kind! On this accompanying compilation CD, 14 chosen acts from the HANDS label roster prove in a high spirit and deliver the (exclusive) goods: From chilling, atmospheric techno sounds by SUPERSIMMETRIA or YYLVGHEIST MAELSTROM to crunchy rhythm noise by YURA YURA, ASCHINENKRIEGER KR52 VS. DISRAPTOR or WIELORYB, from the ardcore attitude of ILLEGAL TRADE or 13th MONKEY to the drumnnoise of WINTERKALTE from bulky beats by TOTAKEKE and SYNTH-ETIK to the noisy groove of S.K.E.T., from the challenging experimentalism of NORM or ANCIENT METHODS to the ethnic beats of AH CAMA-SOTZ, the 14 tracks cover a range of styles - and yet blend perfectly, as does the crowd in the haft tower, the FORMS OF HANDS home! Same procedure - this album presents exclusive tracks by all artists appearing at ORMS OF HANDS 2015 in their actual running order: SUPERSIMMETRIA delivers a nice technoid encore to his recent space-themed album. NORM (the MONO NO AWARE side-project) has been in the long grass for a while, the comeback track "Banerje" mixes ethnic samples and grating loops. WIELORYB are in a particularly old school mood, and TOTAKEKE gives us more IDM with balls (like on his recent album "Me.Tem.Psy.Cho.Sis"). ASCHINENKRIEGER KR52 VS. DISRAPTOR get straight to the point with 140bpm rhythm noise and Berghain darling ANCIENT METHODS track is gloriously psyched out and impossible to describe. Winterklte follow their recent development of infusing their drumnnoise with a subtle groove, and YURA YURAs ,Jgerinnen" is a sure shot fort he rhythm noise dance floor. SYYLVGHEIST MAELSTROM. delivers one of his intensely rhythmic pieces and ILLEGAL TRADE give us a refill of their industrial hardcore crossbreed sound. 13th MONKEY drop bouncing beats and acid lines, while S.K.E.T. sound quite cheerful. SYNTH-ETIKs track ,Circuits" is decidedly on the industrial side of things and AH CAMA-SOTZ closes the album with an irresistible downbeat ethnic track. An inspired and inspiring compilation album, diverse and valuable!
