Modul’s Dots

This is the only album I’ve heard by this tout­ed elec­tron­i­ca trio (Evgenii Shchukin, Evgenii Fomin, and Alek­san­dr Tochilkin) from Rus­si­a’s “sun­ny south”, the old Cos­sack city of Krasnodar. I don’t know if it’s rep­re­sen­ta­tive of their work but this album offers a dis­tinct­ly “old school” elec­tron­i­ca, with lots of beeps, zzzz’s and bleeps. I even sus­pect the influ­ence of the old Sovi­et-era elec­tron­ic exper­i­ments of Nemtin, Kre­ichi and Arte­myev. These quaint elec­ton­ic nois­es are well put togeth­er, how­ev­er, and sus­tain inter­est to the end.
