A.VANVRANKEN - LANDED : DALY CITY RECORDINGS


ADDICTECH.COM EXCLUSIVE : A.VANVRANKEN - LANDED : DALY CITY RECORDINGS

"Landed" is the third LP from IDM and Downtempo producer A.VanVranken, which was produced and fine-tuned over several years. Taking a cue from more mellow idm and ambient influences such as The Flashbulb and Autechre, "Landed" is grounded in melody and intentional beats rather than the harder idm-style turbulent noise.

Starting things off confidently with the sunny roadtrip of "Tomorrow" and ending with the deliberate calm chaos of "Scy", the album guides us through bright and danceable head-bobbing moments, industrial suspense, and introspective interludes catered by mysterious unintelligible vocal samples. Elements outside of IDM add variety and complexity to the soundscape, with intriguing distortions and repetitive glitchy hooks scattered throughout in a carefully-arranged and cohesive package.

Daly City drops a new spice into their recipe with this one, and it can only be found on Addictech.com!
