Chaos
Research is the experimental ambient work of Marko M Hautamäki, who
has featured in a diverse array of previous acts such as the gothic band
Two Witches and Majesty, a doom metal outfit.
This album is a bizarre amalgamation, a disparate synthesis of pandemonium
and subtleties far too numerous to analyze given the filaments that oscillate.
Like a piece of crushed origami, one gently unfolds the crumpled paper
only to find an image of a mandala within, where spirals of artery become
the deities. Dark and fractious, the music while appearing disjointed
somehow manages to find cohesion, if only a conjoining of fragmented soundscapes.
No true melodies formulate song structure. Percussion perhaps is the only
constant to find some stable ground, light electronic beats of ebm stylings,
but even then the drums will splinter and divagate. Swells of sound are
more like beams of light, holes of dark matter, seams of a universe that
cannot be explained.
Deserted Factory have moved into the realm of producing replicated discs
and "Revelations" is one of those, featuring full colour glossy
four-page booklet with silk-screened colour disc as well. The liner notes
are brief - the song titles longer in word count.
