MALTA ORLATA by NOT399093

Crazy riddims sliding out of the grid.

Rooted in smog, urban mud and what NOT399039 calls "bored militia", Malta Orlata is an album of deconstructed club music cooked up with HD sound objects and gliding notes. A stack of dubstep, jungle and UK bass music, in its own digi-futuristic way.

"Visceral textures, ominous moods, and insistent rhythms percolate across this fascinating album of deconstructed club music"
Bandcamp Daily

"He hits a unique balance, as the beats turn more propulsive, the layers of texture become denser and more nuanced. Glimmers and shards of vibrant synthesis roll out the dance-floor facing productions like a rainbow sprouting from a cracked polymer screen. It’s virtually eidetic in its ability to trigger the imagination."
The Quietus

Different genres and influences unfold and flood in this album: from the more explosive leftfield tracks "Mostly Survival", "Arimax900" or "älvjö" to the heavier and foot-rush-rush-dance ones. A "crude atlas" of NOT399093 imaginary, as it emerges also in his visual research and dj practice.
Always changing in mood, sometimes appearing dark and scary, sometimes joyful but never fired up, Malta Orlata is a sort of sonic statement, where NOT399093 aptly expresses what his moniker means: “No Terrore” (that translates into English as “no dread”).

Junwoo Park's sick artwork is the perfect match for this album: a pal-robot pondering around or just smoking up. As in Junwoo's words: "When a special electronic waveform is heard, a sensation rises from the inside. I don't know what it is. But it feels special."

We can finally enjoy a full length album by NOT399093 and even try-to-dance on it.
