Kontour has been experimenting with electronic
devices and voice manipulation for over twenty years. This new album
brings forth an array of pure electronics and experimentation. It explores
some truths in society and the fears those truths create. Social disorder
and mental derangement run amok in a post apocalyptic landscape. You
are being watched everywhere you go; everything you do is being registered.
The album’s production involved no use of computers but harked back
to analogue sequencers and tape machines, creating a sound not at home
in the clean digital age we are subjected to. Percussion and rhythm
came from a collection of vintage drum machines heavily processed and
overdubbed with manually played electronic drums. Recorded voices were
left almost inaudible, disappearing into a backwash of distorted phase.
