Ssg special - Einóma
Einóma might not be a name that many of our readers recognise, they certainly were new to me when a promo arrived from them last year. But they are not easy to forget after hearing their music. Listening to their "Tvenna" EP (on la madame avec le chien) I was immediately interested, as it had a very distinctive sound: it has a real theatrical feel to it. The music just grows and builds, it enthralls. These guys are making dramatic techno. We always place a high priority on showcasing artists that are forging their own sound signature, and we were keen to hear what they would do in a live set, especially as their releases already feel pretty live in structure and presentation. The results here confirm what we thought: Einóma are creating a distinctive world; it is restless take on techno that continues to evolve, shift and morph. "Music that lies in between" is the description they give to their own music, and this seems about right. It is hard to completely place, but it definitely has something that captivates your attention.
Ssg special - Einóma
No tracklisting for this as it is a livepa, but it based mainly on their most recent releases. If you are interested in hearing more of their sounds, I'd suggest trying to track down their "Tvenna" EP and also the "Lost & Found" EP they released earlier this year on Shipwrec. You can get their releases at the Einóma bandcamp, and for more info check their homepage. Big thanks to Bjarni and Steindór for making this recording for the ssgs. Enjoy!
