about

Architecture - 緊那羅:DESILA
———-

(review)
Architecture is a sprawling musical suite that traverses both old and new electronic sound territories. But it’s much more than just a collection of tracks: it’s a living, breathing, pulsating organism. It is the film score to your most obscure dreams and farthest memories. It is a gateway to classified laboratory experiments and labyrinthine mysteries. It is the architecture of the bionic and the cyborg.

Neural sparks fuse with intelligent circuits, intricate fibres overlay evolving meta-structures. The foundations go deep, where the throbbing magma oozes, generating robotic cicadas, crystal fountains, fractal vines, and endless landscapes of ethereal electronics. The subtle playfulness of a symbiotic paradise melds with the post-industrial technocentric clamour of a disjointed metropolis. But the gentlest human touch is never far away, never lost, never out of sight.

Architecture presents a vision of the future that nods to the past and augments or even supplants the now. It is at once familiar and disturbing, soothing and intense. The end result is an effective simplicity that belies the sweat and grease poured into its execution.

Do not be put off by the dimensions of this epic record. Every track is allowed to fulfill its unhurried potential. It sucks you right in, and the carefully curated flow and overall coherence of the album make the hours disappear.

Do yourself a favour and carve out some time to absorb and be absorbed by the beauty of the machines. Curl up in your favourite armchair, don your best headphones, zone out and zoom in. This is technology serving the human condition. A perfect antidote to our lazy modern world’s nauseating obsession with soundbites, quick fixes, and trite cliches. Superb.

A major work moving from just the love for the machine to the lifeblood of all things - Architecture. The architecture of the buildings that house our souls and bodies. The architecture that creates the cities where we live and hopefully thrive, the architecture that codes and forms the arc of the internet. Created almost entirely on the iPad, Architecture is truly a digital work for our digital generation.

Following last years major work DEAD MACHINE is the follow up in the series that properly goes off the deep end in becoming a truly major work of epic proportions. DEAD MACHINE started 緊那羅:DESI LA’s swerve into making a multimedia project that included AV performances of new visual work created solely by Desi La.
Architecure continues this with a major 15 track work and numerous AV miniworks which will ultimately culminate in a major advance in AV performance for Desi La and the start of installations at various locations in Japan.
Following the initial release of the digital form of Architecture this July, there will be a specially designed physical version of Architecture available in mid August. Please check my Twitter and Instagram account for details.
