Tornamented Walls

Rosa Anschütz weaves her harmonium and voice into Tennota’s walls of textured ambience, on a tip that comes highly recommended if you’re into work by Alliyah Enyo or Cucina Povera.
 
Playing feedback synthesizer and double bass, you’d think Tennota would dominate ‘Tormented Walls’, but it’s Rosa Anschütz’s voice that ferries this one. Layering weighty but crystalline choral chants, she cries softly over vertiginous low-end drone on ‘The Legacy’, coaxing a dense crescendo from seemingly nowhere. On ‘Trading’, acidic squelches and dungeon scrapes puncture the soundfield, and Anschütz’s casual echoes swirl around the edges until they dissipate.
 
It slowly builds to the side-long ‘Rust/Light’, a fritzed industrial meditation that’s like dark jazz played in a vast warehouse, with anxious, Gaspar Noe techno belting from an abandoned dockyard outside.
