Search - Echran :: In Offret (Slim)

In Offret is the second Echran full length after the acclaimed self-titled debut
(released by the Italian SmallVoices label in 2005). Echran is the electronic project
of Davide Del Col and Fabio Volpi, who has worked over the last few years with
the Milanese audio/video collective Otolab. Starting in 2003, the project joins two
different kinds of experiences: one is gloomy and ambient, the other is noise-based
with a psychedelic attitude. Echran s dark electronic soundscapes are not easy to
pigeonhole there s a constant metronome-like pulse that could be compared to
Pan Sonic or some Basic Channel-inspired minimal techno, but at the same time
it s not really ambient or droning. French lyrics give the record an elegant touch of
soft velvet atmosphere.
