Morgan Hood
Mega-Caller Ep

Album UK 2013 on Organic Art Movement label
Dance (House, Minimal, Techno, Minimal Techno, Tech House)

Organic Art Movement's newest signing Morgan Hood, serve up a smorgasbord of atmospheric techno, dubbed out textures and staunch analog muscle. Morgan Hood survey a sonic landscape that explores the intersections that occur within Oramics range of emotions that are both tough and commanding yet nuanced and subtle. These spectral adventures utilise a sonic arsenal that covers a broad range of electronic and acoustic tones peppered with field recordings of electromagnetic interference, echo chambers and static. In Mega-Caller, course strokes of electronic interference fizz and spray into a silhouette of dubbed out melancholia to form a backdrop to which vast chords emerge without warning and disappear into the ether. The ground is shaken with a monolithic bass that almost threatens to shatter the delicately constructed arrangement of hand recorded claps, particles of static and other electroacoustic oddities. Potent Techno-Noir anthem 'Safari' compels us to envisage an Orwellian disco. Bauhaus frequencies and Icey reverbs are the order of the day here with chilling pads dissipating into a smoke filled ether. Meanwhile, the low frequency spectrum is driven by a myriad of unpredictable bass excursions, tumbling and waltzing with their percussive cousins; distorted cowbells, murky toms, and a deformed mutant of an acid house loop. Consider this an unlikely new soundtrack to London's underground. Early support for Morgan Hood's debut EP has came from Davide Squillace, Arnaud le Texlier, Valentino Kanzyani, Jesse Rose, Tensnake, Troy Pierce, Mathias Schaffhauser, Tim Green and many more.
