Ezekiel Honig

Folding In On Itself is Ezekiel Honig's sixth album, but marks his debut release for experimental label Type. Moody ambient interlaced with found sounds, minimal techno beats and dub-y, rumbling bass all weave in and out of the intricate soundscapes. For this album, the Anticipate label boss uses sound samples recorded in his native NYC, adding layers on top to create a beautiful, unrelentingly melancholic work. The end result is so delicate that you feel if you touch it, it may disintegrate into dust between your fingers. The album concerns itself with memory and impermanence, and the just within reach melodies echo this concept perfectly, like some nagging thought that lurks just beyond realization. Folding In On Itself is a treasure, one that could easily be overlooked if not given the close attention it deserves. This is perfect headphone listening for a grey, rainy day in the city.
