Noah Before - "In Death's Nature"
Creating some beautiful granular synthesis exploration of glitched melody into a place of extremity, the Boise, ID based artist Noah Before follows in the same kind of overwhelming but inherently musical realm of artists like Blanck Mass, I Am A Lake Of Burning Orchids and Lawrence English. This is the kind of extremity in music that is really appealing to me - a place where there is so much input that it becomes an almost smooth sine wave. Deeper listening, however, reveals microtonal variations and exploded view melodic compositions. Lovely work here.
