Evitceles & Spite Cathedral

Split LP

Evitceles & Spite Cathedral  - Split LP

After two full-length albums, freshly released on S+M, Evitceles & Spite Cathedral meet their equally twisted but often polar approaches to electronic music for a 12” split release.
Five tracks are inhabiting the Evitceles side of the record and while two of them we already heard on his latest cassette they seem to be living a completely new life when put in the context of this shared release. ‘Endless Reach? deceivingly sets a more dreamy tone which is instantly shattered by the tracks to follow. It?s not until the second half of ‘Restless Head? that the skies are clear again and we?re once again ready to fall in the warm embrace of “???????”, the most heart-breaking track in the ever-growing discography of Bulgarian producer Etien Slavchev as Evitceles.
While a bigger chunk of Spite Cathedral?s tracklist can be found on forthcoming new full-length ‘The Human Touch” (Sores022) his side on this record is not less tense and emotionally charged. Usually indulging his musical searches in lengthier releases, here Dan Mortazavi with teams with his long term partner Karsten Svendsen on several tracks to offer us a more dense and saturated version of his recent work as Spite Cathedral. The first half of the material is more rhythm and beat oriented, then the producers carefully refocuses on melody until it all disintegrates into amorphic ambiances and microsound debris.
