Immersed, fungal techno from a primordial realm teaming with microbic life and haunting echoes, leaving the impression of wandering through a network of sewers where every step reverberates endlessly. Primordia is laden with dub ricochets and rhythms that shift between stoic arterial pulsations and seductive beats. Some of the finer damp and murky pieces are "Jaffa Dub" and "Sunday Morning," taking electronic music away from the antiseptic futurist sensibilities and infusing it with life. This is a fabulous album from inter_version, an exceptional Montreal-based label striving to release the music of artists who evolve established forms of electronic music to the next level.
