The Oblique duo returns, and it does so with two albums: “THING FOR YOU” & “PANIC” With them they show that they are the type of artists who do not sew without thread, who know what they are doing at all times and do not leave anything to chance, although sometimes their decisions may seem out of place or out of the ordinary. And if in addition, after a consecration in the underground, we see them doing their thing with these two albums, it leaves us even more surprised.
Both EPs manage to provide introspection, energy and an absorbing twilight, closing an album that knows how to turn musical pulp into a refreshing ambrosia juice. The more the record is listened to, the more difficult it is to place it in a specific geographic location. His music seems to never solidify, to be a flow of sounds and impressions that never seem to remain fixed in place or memory, like a perfume or a quick vision of a body in motion, to the point of postulating itself as one of the true values of the future of meek and bright electronics.
Both are works that have been painstakingly cared for, that lend themselves to beginning them and not returning to reality until they are finished: the headphones are like the oxygen cylinder that allows you to dive to the bottom of this great sound rotation, this cosmic orbit, and to be there in a state of hypnotic fascination.
In this world where speed is desperately sought and attention deficit is so high, such an album will be misunderstood among many people, even dismissed as really important. But you just have to have the patience and the will to stop, to breathe, to sink into it, to hold on there as long as you can, and admire its interior.
