Hydrostatic Residue, by Richard Bentley

Hydrostatic Residue

by Richard Bentley

supported by

mikehoolboom So many unexpected riches here. Careful recordings of metal and water lay down a haptic grid, from which a blizzard of encounters emerge, passing voices at a fair in Late, a glitched metal symphony in Blade, as if every molecule of the scene was bent to the task of listening. Favorite track: Blade.
