Decomposure

Im not sure how many people have heard of Decomposure or his new album, At Home and Unaffected. While it was released June 7th, it's brand new to me and maybe it's new to you too.

Typically I'd write my own description of what I post, but this was too creative and perfect to use my own words instead. From Unschooled Records:

"To get a sense of what 'At Home and Unaffected' is, it might be helpful to picture an onion. An onion is a unique structural form: while at first encased in a brittle, desiccated husk, when peeled it uncovers an almost alien anatomy, a cleanly contained object ordered with skeletal precision... Like the onion, Decomposure's sophomore LP, 'At Home and Unaffected' shares the same meticulous layering and structure. Gathering and sorting sound recorded almost entirely from his apartment, this 22-year old Canadian musician has carefully assembled an indefinable hybrid of styles that spans breakcore, pop, glitch, acoustic, spoken word, ambient, and minute traces of all other forms of recorded sound. While it is kind of sort of mostly electronic music, almost none of the telltale signs arethere - there are no synth pads nor canned beats nor familiar samples in sight. Instead, mixing fractal organic beats and smart melodies with a unique combination of spontaneity and order, he assembles a rich set of textures and sounds that reveal more with each listen."
