Geistform drops “United Radiations”, a bold statement in 2019, two CDs packed to the brim with his inimitably rhythmic tracks, making use of about every element he has previously worked with in order to deliver what is arguably his most comprehensive album to date.
A technoid pulse, an electro swagger, washes of distortion and analogue noise and sparsely used samples are the main ingredients of this homogenous
artistic effort. And let’s not forget, a radioactivity-themed album surely means following in some of the largest footsteps in electronic music, but Rafael Espinosa tackles the challenge with confidence and success.
From the buzzling, crackling industrial foundations to the immediate dance floor appeal (and hit potential!) of recent vinyl releases, from the abstraction of Espinosas’s adventures in sound design to futuristic semi-melodic tunes, the “United Radiations” show Geistform refining all of those aspects of his discography and feeding them through crisp, up-to-date production techniques. In the true spirit of the album’s theme, Geistform has the amalgamation of styles down to a science, moving effortlessly among them with a seamless fluidity that keeps thing exciting all the way through. So choose your element, make use of it in whichever way you may prefer,
“United Radiations” are in the air for you and me, for cerebral impulse and somatic impact alike. A true cornucopia of greatness!
