The latest from Los Angeles-based producer Eric Hanson’s shape-shifting EEZIR alias is a six-track EP of knob-friendly liquid electronics and “headfuck journey music:” Modulated Movement. Born of long, loose lockdown sessions with the Arturia DrumBrute Impact drum machine, he tracked rhythms first, then layered in expressive live takes on various analog synthesizers. The result is a rich, restless fusion of electro, techno, and futurist industrial moods, spiced with skippy claps, spiral acid, and “balls to the wall 90’s shit.”

Hanson’s process is stream-of-consciousness, intuitive, and overtly therapeutic: “If I’m having a shit day, I blast it out.” His professional work as a mastering engineer and audio quality control specialist has both sharpened and shaped his listening skills; when a texture or melodic phrase catches his ear, he lets it lead the way, side-winding and unfolding according to its own hidden logic: “The emotional moment is what people connect to. I’ve learned to not get in the way anymore.” From the regal squelch of “Blossom Brigade” to the aerial cyber jack of closing anthem “Grinner Groove,” this is music of immediacy and discovery, attuned to the mysteries of sonic synergy and “the sound of things at first not apparent.”
