Tune of the Week: Phoenecia

Here’s a slice of audio alchemy courtesy of US electronic wizards Phoenecia. In addition to running the Schematic Music Company, Joshua Kay and Romulo Del Castillo make beats that seem to depict an alternate version of the swamplands of their native Florida. While deploying very digital techniques, they manage to create natural sounding transitions between sounds and grooves. Every layer sounds filtered, adding to the murkiness as well as adding a sense of mystery. Get in the boat and get lost in the abstract tones!
