You know that I’m a sucker for microtonal music. I still am quite critical of it, but I always applaud the effort put into it. So, it’s no surprise that I’m enjoying the new Sevish very much! The artist has proven themself time and time again with various successful releases, including my personal favourite, Rhythm & Xen. With Harmony Hacker, Sevish takes back where their 2015 full-length left, and offers us some high-quality electronic dance music, with drum and bass and IDM undertones, that’s surprisingly easy to approach considering its microtonal nature. Speaking of which, the songs vary between different equal subdivisions of the octave – 10, 15, and 22 -, just intonation, Bohlen-Pierce, and some other systems as well. It’s a fantastic album to get into microtonal music, and a continued step forward in contemporary music.
