caustic_gates builds recursive palimpsests out of modular synthesiser patches and field recordings; crackles, noise and loops informed by the grammar of ambient and dub techno, liminal atmospheres extracted from the subaqueous and the subterranean.

the hum of your veiled voice
by Jake Muir
essential sferic release pushing ambient music in a dense, hazy, foggy (add similar adjectives) direction - layers upon layers of texture (but never muddy) and incredibly richly detailed

Free-flowing, loosely structured songs that borrow lightly from jazz and ambient but expand in directions all their own.
