Mapped Out In Lights – Longform One

Illinois-based label Somnimage has been on quite a roll producing some of the best post-Industrial and experimental music coming out of the United States.  Today’s offering pairs Dan Burke (who won fame as the chief focal point of Illusion of Safety) and label owner Mykel Boyd (who has also performed with such luminaries as The Anti-Group and post doom romance).  There are two tracks on this album – the first being a solid sample lasting 7 minutes giving a fine taste of what is coming, and a full track clocking in at nearly an hour of shifting drones, pulses and eerily dark soundscapes.  Crucial listening.
