Reaching across the globe with ambitious appeal and obvious creative command, the Israeli producer Absalon has quickly found himself in the nexus of interest in novel electronic music, brandishing extraordinarily viscous compositions and stylized sound design. With a keen eye on appreciators of textured arrangements, The Rust is incredibly excited to present his latest release, The Mind EP.
Absalon’s music is defined by predominantly lush phrases and profiles, with a clear ear for modality and tonal relationships. The Mind begins and ends with the same emotive, melodious egress, with pulsing chords shifting into and out of the frequency spectrum. There’s a buoyancy to his songwriting that is demonstrably refreshing in a scene defined so often by sharp, razor-edged textures and attitudes, and the result is a vivacious and positively charged collection of tracks that fuse precise engineering and emotional resonance with outstanding clarity. For anyone looking to balance out their listening catalog and find respite from the harsher sounds of contemporary offerings, look no further than Absalon’s The Mind EP.
