[ARCHPL018] Niederflur - Lumen EP
Archipel brings us the wonderfully intricate, atmospheric, textural, funky and juicypackage to ARCHPL 018, the talent of Minus's Niederflur who bring with them the darkly blinding "Lumen EP".
A lumen is a unit used to measure the perceived power of light and this EP is most definitely very powerful and certainly can be perceived as such. This is where the line between something as intangible as light is crossed and becomes tangible as one would feel an intense and warming heat which goes so far as to manifest itself as something with mass.
Title track "Lumen" is the focused, convex lens, knife edge point of light which focuses a small portion of the sun's energy so densely it could initiate many a blaze. "Masse" is as dense as the most solid of gems and radiates dark light like heavy water and is sure to corrupt any Geiger counter within its radioactive reach while "Flor" stacks itself as high and wide as it can go, building further and further upon itself, and just as one would think it could build no further, it rotates itself back to within and further densifies, an inescapable sort of density of which one is eternally locked pleasurably within.
"Flucht" raises one into the blackest skies of night and flies hour after hour through blood orange clouds filled with the atmospherically scattered light from what was temporarily civilization below but is now just a memory shaded in the delight of being closed within the phosphorescence of late night fog.
