So, that Tweet/Facebook line isn’t exactly true because I’m not sure WHAT リンキンパーク is, although it’s listed on the Exo Tapes Bandcamp before each of the new In Media Res pre-order CDrs: Quindecim, Triginta Septem, & Viginti Sex. That is, outside of it’s lawlz translation. But, I figured it’d be nice to get a brief breakdown on what In Media Res is searing over at the Exo Tapes headquarters. Take the adventure!
Viginti Sex
Viginti Sex plunges into the realms Exo Tapes fronts as Mediafired, while harnessing deep signature Eccojams Vol. 1 mix-skip moves, scratching the CDs with artistic precision in order to get the right moment looping. Drawing from modern and less-modern pop musings, In Media Res slangs Viginti Sex as the piece that intentionally laughing with the straightest of faces. Or, more specifically, the broken car-audio system you’ll contextually blare while driving home on a Friday night.
Triginta Septem
Triginta Septem provides a more spiritual side to the リンキンパーク with chorals that ensnare themselves in a softly furious mixing process that spirals a waft hollow embodiment. It’s a trick, almost, playing the part of a higher power, and this is In Media Res’ fortitude and subconsciously concurred role as music maker/organizer. The depth of these samples in Triginta Septem mingle and center the リンキンパーク CDr collection with a holistic nature that’s all-at-once healing with bewilderment.
Quindecim
The stability In Media Res beholds with Quindecim is what fortifies the リンキンパーク CDr series. There’s a lot of light-hearted samples used within it, and loops pacing themselves upon other loops, pacing other loops, but structurally, it’s a mass. Not wall-of-noise style “mass,” or church on Sunday, but Quindecim harnesses much more fluid cohesiveness that’s looking for constant stability within layers of expanding and contracting audio waves, peering through the cracks, and then smoothing them out.
Head to the Exo Tapes website ASAP for pre-order of リンキンパーク: Quindecim, Triginta Septem, & Viginti Sex and the new +you CDr!
