Rhyw is Alex Tsiridis aka one half of Cassegrain. On this, his solo debut for Arcing Seas, his smoul-dering alien techno sound manifesto continues to thrive over three unique tracks. The morphing, deconstructed acid of ‘Unpunishable’ - a molten statement of lusty intent - strikes first in a heady, hazy pummelling of doom-funk. ‘Vertisol’ pushes crisp and dry snaking percussion through an anechoic chamber; the bass end neatly warming at first then burning hard through your mid section. An icy cold shot of ‘Aqua Velva’ is the final offering - a pushing sub-level trip through Rhyw’s private domain - where tingling rushes of bass and static charges wash over us leaving a sinful residue. Label info: Arcing Seas is an anagram of Cassegrain. It started out as a secret alias, releasing a couple EPs on Our Circula Sound. The secret was less well kept after the duo appeared at Berghain under this name. A year later, after deciding to start a label, it finally made sense to bring the two together.
