supported by

John Cratchley Interesting left-field electronic music sampler from two adventurous labels...not always an easy listen but always rewarding if you commit your ears to the task...many of these artists have gone on to more rarified planes of existence since its original 2003 release...

original press release from double CD version:

Over the course of 7 and 4 years, respectively, 12k and LINE have been at the forefront of minimalist digital music. They have established themselves not only as a home for some of the most important contemporary electronic sound artists but also as labels who are not afraid to introduce new artists and give them the opportunity to create a unique and recognized voice for themselves in the crowded world of electronic music and sound art.

With the release of Two Point Two, the continuation of 12k and LINE’s joint double cd series, the labels showcase their own aesthetics and highlight some of the current and future artists that will be at the forefront of their release schedules for the next year. Packaged in a stark-white double-CD digipack that features the design and photography of Taylor Deupree and Richard Chartier, all of the tracks on Two Point Two are previously unreleased.

CD1 shows 12k’s current interest in melodic and acoustic instrument-based electronic compositions and experiments in deconstructed rhythmic structures. CD2, the LINE disc, continues the documentation of conceptual and installation work by artists who explore contemporary, digital minimalism and the subtlety of texture.

In addition to featuring much of the label’s established roster, Two Point Two brings together several artists in unique collaborations including joint projects from Sogar and Cheason (of Fonica) as well as pioneering artists Asmus Tietchens and David Lee Myers (Arcane Device). Two Point Two presents a cross section of electronic artists’ unique sound palettes, from the haunting piano intro by Sawako, to Steve Roden’s fragile digital/acoustic sculpture to the disjointed videogame techno of Kyoto’s Ken’ichi Itoi and the dark pulsations of COH.

We, so tired of all the darkness in our lives
by Leyland Kirby

supported by 27 fans who also own “Two Point Two”

This one album I imagine would've been like a warm blanket against the cold harsh reality of what was 2020, there to help comfort us when we felt down and at our lowest. Like the piano, synths, and drums in this album along with the title itself, we are tired of the cruel reality grinding down on us, yet we continue forward as each song does making it to their finish lines. The future may not be any better, but at least these music pieces are around to comfort the blow. Thank you Leyland. yddragon
