SOTE – MINISTRY OF TALL TAILS LP

limidet 150 copies

Properly advanced gear from Ata Ebtekar aka Sote on a politically barbed, aesthetically mindbending album for SVBKVLT following a string of mazy and magnificent releases for a whole ruck of noted labels since his debut for Warp over two decades ago. Made out of xenharmonic santour chimes and itchy polyrhythms, it’s a fully a hypnotic, bewildering reflection of the world’s corrupt sociopolitical systems that taps into the same curious goo that triggered our obsession with Theo Burt’s unfathomably brilliant ‘Gloss’ album, as well as foundational/conceptual work by 0PN.
