about

Space Blue "s/t" CS 60 (CRU 008)

First solo album from this former member of Electric Bunnies from Florida (a particularly versatile band with an album on Florida's Dying and singles on Sacred Bones, Columbus Discount and Die Stasi). Based in Los Angeles, Space Blue (possible nod to a Suicide song) is mainly electronic but keeps on with the twisted and intriguing psychedelics of Electric Bunnies. Nine tracks and as many galaxies or tropical gardens to discover, with acid moods subtly invading your brain. It's an home-made album with carefully constructed textures, voices and tracklisting. Space Blue takes the time to surprise you and the sensations this album induce are not those that vanishe as quickly as they appeared.

"Space Blue, if that is his real name, is a straight-up banger, wetting his beak in several styles and never shrinking from the challenges presented by creating electronic music in a crowded field of competitors. “Lonely L.A.” is just one of the impressive compositions afoot, but its wiry frame and fascinating underbelly aptly represent why this tape is so unique: Its contents ever-so-patiently form a cocoon for the ear, fluffy and cushioned by all manner of digital distraction. “A La Luna” also tweaks the ear with a lofi drum-machine beat and strange flora/fauna that seem to bark at the listener. Quite the trip, quite the intrigue; Space Blue cracks enough codes to deserve a spot on your tape shelf, at the very least." - Consequence of sound

Premier album solo du guitariste des regrettés floridiens d'Electric Bunnies (groupe particulièrement caméléon avec un album sur Florida's Dying et des singles sur Sacred Bones, Columbus Discount et Die Stasi). Basé à Los Angeles, Space Blue (possible référence à une chanson de Suicide) est de dominante électronique mais poursuit aussi le psychédélisme tordu et intriguant d'Electric Bunnies. Neuf morceaux comme autant de galaxies ou de jardins tropicaux, dont les ambiances acides se dévoilent doucement mais sûrement. Un album artisanal mais minutieusement construit, notamment les textures, les voix et les enchaînements. Space Blue prend le temps de vous surprendre et les sensations qu'il procure n'ont rien d'évanescentes.

"Loin des fulgurances psyché-punk de son groupe The Electric Bunnies, la californien Space Blue nous fait plonger avec son premier album solo au titre éponyme, dans un univers aux volutes experimentales ambient captivantes. Dès le track d’ouverture Awareness, les boucles aux sonorités vaguement indus tournoient dans l’espace, pour se muter en une mélodie cristalline appuyée par une rythmique à la cadence langoureuse, montant progressivement vers des cieux traversés de pertubations électriques. Space Blue fige le temps dans un immobilisme mobile, élaborant des compositions au minimalisme rêche, enrobées de déflagrations à la retenue sous-jacente. Proche d’artistes comme Demdike Stare, Huerco S. ou Patricia, l’américain propose une oeuvre squelettique au système nerveux traversé de ramifications incandescentes, faisceaux drones mouvants aux saveurs tumultueuses, nous plongeant avec malice d’un titre à l’autre vers des contrées imaginaires au pouvoir catalyseur, changeant constamment de direction sans jamais nous perdre dans son dédale de sensations et d’émotions. Une oeuvre cathartique aux battements cinétiques. Très fortement recommandé." - Silenceandsound

Un album surprenant, audacieux, original. "La vie est un long fleuve de merde" a tout naturellement trouvé sa place dans mon émission sur Radio Rectangle "Hobby #39 : Les troubles du comportement : retour au stade anal". https://www.mixcloud.com/marcwathieu/hobby-39-retour-au-stade-anal/ Marc Wathieu
