simulations 2.0

ant-zen presents stephen sawyer's follow-up to last years 'simulations 1.0'. once again, the listener dives into a strange parallel universe that is populated by dark ambiences, paralyzing sub-basses and cold-sounding rhythms. the rhythmic part of l'ombres’ work has also increased and on 'simulations 2.0' you can find unusual references - such as slow dark hop oriented beats and loops that are overlaid with smooth synth soundscapes, soundtrackish samples and filter manipulations.

a perusal of the 7 remixes reveals reverberated distorted beats (s:cage), drum'n'bass / breakbeats (enduser) or straight ambient polyrhythmic percussion/synth lines (hecq) - adding a stylistic diversity to l'ombre’s ‘simulations 1.0 and 2.0.
