Dorisburg - Dimension Sculpture

  • Share
  • Stockholm-based Alexander Berg prefers to release records on labels he has a personal relationship with. So up until now his EPs as Dorisburg have come out on Swedish imprints run by his friends. For his first foreign outing, he's teamed up with Myth Music, a Berlin label whose only two releases have both come from its founder, Lando. On recent releases, Dorisburg has edged towards a greyer, more techno-orientated sound. There's more of that on "Dimension Sculpture," as the Swede turns out a well-groomed cut of gloomy club music. The magic is in the details. Intricate layers of sound—deft maracas, ticking hi-hats, gloopy pads—are neatly interlocked, gradually raising the intensity with each new addition. Eventually the seal breaks and a big, brooding synth line is unleashed. Lando opts for a more streamlined approach, firing techno kicks down a dusky tunnel of metallic clangs, fizzing hi-hats and faint vocal echoes. It's solid, but falls short when compared to Berg's masterful sound design.
