Graffick's latest album, the ever intricate 'Spectra', welcomes listeners into a glorious ethereality, the subtleties of his sound design a guided journey through an unknown world. There's a story to be told in every pluck, every beep, every twinkle, every airy pad.
Elements carry their own essence, pulling the listener from side to side with low-energy, spacious, angelic tracks, and fierce, pulsating, pounding tracks. It's clear across the project that Graffick is telling a story amongst the cloud of high-energy electronic bangers. As the kick drums hit, the bass wobbles and the lead lines shimmer, listeners are fully engulfed in an electric world.
Graffick then adds, ”The concept behind Spectra is that our life experiences exist on a spectrum and that our perception of these events defines how we each see the world.”
Going by Graffick, Blaine Counter has begun to position himself on the cutting edge of electronic experimentation. Learning the craft of audio production, it was a near-fatal accident that was the catalyst for a life dedicated to telling stories through texture-driven music. The music and the title of Graffick are both a nod toward his admiration of illustrative art, made clear by his vivid sonic approach.
