At the Mind Altar

Elizabeth Alker drifts into the spaces in between, with transportative new music from Jim O’Rourke, Hania Rani and Khotin.

Elizabeth Alker drifts to the edges of ambient and electronic music, and explores the spaces in between.

On Jim O’Rourke’s latest record, Too Compliment, his penchant for spiralling, immersive electronics is given free rein on a beguiling modular synthesiser, handcrafted for him by one of the remaining masters of the instrument. Elsewhere, Hania Rani’s mesmerising piano composition for theatre and film is given the retrospective treatment, and the Canadian producer Khotin offers up a weird and watery downtempo groove in the form of his new single, ‘Mind Altar’.
