TZESNE – RIH ZEHM BUH

3″ CDr, https://taalem.bandcamp.com/

The project is Tzesne, and the title is even more unpronounceable, “Rih Zehm Buh”, but my oh my, this is a nice one to listen to. In the 18 minutes, three parts can be defined. The first part is an ambient atmospheric piece with harp sound, or maybe prepared piano sounds over a tapestry of sounds that wouldn’t be weird to include in Art of Noise recordings. That digital/analogue stretchy Fairlight feel. They’re not voices, but there’s something connected to vocal synthesis. The second part has a creepy high-pitched pulse, and next to that, the most minimal backing layers I’ve heard so far in the Advent Calendar. But the atmosphere is great as it continues and continues. Play at high volume for optimum enjoyment; the third part will make that extra impact. The combination of wind chimes and rain and a sonic manipulation of the rain make it synthetic in the end. No, I have no clue who Tzesne is, but what a track!
