Abhi Meer - Emotionally Unavailable

  • Melodic drone with gentle acid undertones.

  • Mumbai-based modular synthesist Abhi Meer makes complex machinery sound minimal. On his debut single for boxout.fm Recordings last year, he went for high-octane steppers, but this cut feels contemplative and more personal. The single is centred around bursts of staccato bleeps, claps, acid and electro that could easily be classified as glitchy techno or experimental noise. These elements coalesce in a way that feels almost bittersweet, which might be because Meer intends to explore other genres on a different alias from now on. Despite its name, "Emotionally Unavailable" teems of nostalgia and reflection with its intricate design and billowy movements.
