Altered Zones

Sean McCann's "Broken Replicator" is one of those screaming fields of sonic love that makes you feel as though you are simultaneously being consumed in a giant solar fireball, having your heart explode, and dissolving into infinity. The carefully orchestrated way in which the cacophony fades to near-silence only to crash back into the foreground once again, over and over, maximizes the emotional impact, instantly proving McCann worthy of comparisons to Fennesz, Tim Hecker, and other masters of the blown-out wall of noise. The kind of track I'd like to hear as my ashes are blasted into space. --Arturo Darvishire, Altered Zones
