June 3 street date. The Montréal/Berlin producer returns with a second LP for Constellation and follow-up to his acclaimed "Therapy With Colour" (2020). "Miracles" draws on recordings originally captured in a 2018 audio/visual performance project based around surveillance footage - a precursor to video-capped, monitor-based horizons that soon took on new meanings. Re-immersing himself in this material, Gowdy disassembles and deploys the source material for new experiments with vactrols, noise gates and analog-to-digital triggering and aliasing, the original recordings then juxtaposed anew amidst these successive textural and rhythmic treatments. Gowdy keeps this re-composition process stripped down, elemental and purposive, guided by an ascetic synthesis as sublation. The result is a captivating collection of minimal IDM and oscillated electronics, working primarily in a 120-140 BPM zone of tonal percussion and corrugated pulse.
