shimura - 'Colour Field' Album Out Now !
shimura’s album “Colour Field” is out now through Petite Victory Collective.
Colour Field is shrouded in a beautiful darkness. Haunting choral tones transcend IDM, breakbeat and UKG. The fractured rhythmic structures might be familiar but Colour Field is an excursion into fresh audio territory.
The title takes inspiration from the works of Mark Rothko, whose immersive colour field paintings provoke a response that lies at the intersection of tragedy, ecstasy and doom.
Colour Field marks shimura’s transition towards Ableton/Max and away from Eurorack: during the 12month recording process, his modular setup was stripped back, leaving the “Vhikk X” module at the heart of what remained. A highly experimental drone voice, the Vhikk X captures the emotional essence of the album and can be heard throughout. This change in workflow brought about a concentrated period of creative output, quickly bringing to life several ideas that had previously lingered in the shadows.
Don’t be a stranger!
