Dark electronica artist Tenebral Cortex lets loose his unpredictable new album: ‘‘Arduous Recursion’
Tenebral Cortex has been working as part of the Geometric Corruption label, a coalition of artists from the underground, both in terms of the sector of electronica they inhabit and the lightless form of dark IDM they create.
Geometric Corruption joins together international electronic producers of experimental and psychedelic, a community which embraces avant-garde. It’s an environment which suits Tenebral Cortex well, his own moniker giving connotations of braindance and darker tones.
Native to France, Tenebral Cortex has previously found his way onto the Horrordelic collaboration album ‘Echoes in the Dark’ put together at the end of 2018, his atmospheric and somewhat disconcerting single ‘Seeking Entropy’ being chosen as the lead-in track. Like ‘Seeking Entropy’, much of this artist’s work finds a balance between chaotic glitch sampling and focused effort to keep rhythm and cohesion in the final release.
That pattern returns in the intro to ‘Shore of Laments’, a song taken from Tenebral Cortex’s recently released eight track album ‘Arduous Recursion’. The harsh beats of glitch and corrupted digital noise create a soundscape before moving towards a more rhythmic and harmonic environment. Part of that unfamiliar ambience helps clear expectations, as the seemingly random effects begin to give way to lucidity.
