Description
Beguilingly fizzy electro vibes kick off the debut effort from the latest addition to Nous’ ever expanding plethora of talent. O. Xander’s Less is More EP does what it says on the tin with a bare bones aesthetic that pays dividends in the subtlety of its arrangement and an enigmatic viscidity that sits central to each component track, none more so than the nectarous ‘Lovers Theme’. Deeper into the EP there is a discernible salute to the Belleville Three and their dilettantish synthesis of sound and sensation on the aptly titled ‘Integrity & Intensity’, while closing out the collection Michigan’s Karen Gwyer contributes a leviathan rework of the propulsive ÔDirac SeaÕ, also included in its original form, with the subsequent version weaving a distended web of imbricated melodies into a rapturous crescendo.
