Motoko & Myers – Colocate

“Organic electronic music” might sound like an oxymoron, but Bay Area duo Motoko & Myers produce just that on their sophomore album Colocate, released on Cincinnati-based label Soda Gong. The duo employ what they call “4-handed” collaborative keyboard playing on the album’s nine improvised and odd grooves. Each sounds experimental and otherworldly, yet strangely warm and inviting. We can imagine these tracks sounding perfect in the post-morning hours of some lush forest rave with cicadas buzzing and the psychedelics waning… Recommended for fans of minimal synth, environmental music, Tropical Drums Of Deutschland, Yu Su, Second Circle, etc.
