HEX OPERATOR

Ltd. 100 copies on white vinyl. Intricate dark ambience by Luka Höffler aka Lu Katavist, Elfish Echo, etc. Electronic music made in Cologne! Self-titled debut LP from Cologne-based project Hex Operator. File under: Rhythm'n'Drone. Evocative, intense, complex soundscapes, fittingly accompanied by artwork hinting at psychedelic influences. This record offers six hypnotic drone studies, based on electronics (plus a little bit of guitar), some with rhythmic elements. Dense sound-sculptures alongside more open arrangements are luring the listener into untethered flights through lucid and dark aural realms, esthetically based on modern modular synthesis as well as the heritage of an industrial past.
