Shadows Of The Past vinyl

Following the success of his recent 'Sonic Surge' EP also out on Sublunar, Cirkle follows up with a fresh, all-rights-reserved circumphony, 'Shadows Of The Past'. This record sounds like the chemical interaction of stalactitic droplets and evanescent mists, as they dualistically fall and rise from the cave floor of a wild grotto. Untrodden techno, these are unperturbed caves, nether spelunked nor exploited. Even the drier 'Shamanic', which honours a relatively more classic techno sound, could easily evoke the wing folds of a rare bat, with its sudden stringy stinger set against a calculated continuum of FM bass. 'Tears Of Light' provides the record closure and contrast, as we clamber out of the stony darkness, teary-eyed, to a jurassic great-outdoors of padwash synth and constellating harmony.
