Klsr's 'Connections' takes listeners on a journey. It starts with a string tremolo, panning slightly side to side, morphed by filters and hit with the clasp of sub-bass. Twinkling pianos and harps fill the air with arpeggios, the dizzying swirl constantly moving from strong and beautiful to collapsing and sinister.
The whistles peak your interest elsewhere, before returning to the mass of instrumentals where the boundaries between instruments, between acoustic and electronic sounds intersect. After no time, the track reaches a climax, percussion re-shuffling the perceptions and hitting with forward-moving rivers and plucky tops. The strings wash away, their final note hanging on, and the campaign is complete.
Klsr comments, "Connections is inspired by cinematic movements and imagery, combining electronic music with natural elements. I wrote this because of my love of electronic music - the outro of the song is a culmination of everything before it, it breaks out into a beat combining digital and organic sounds. I use a lot of organic sounding elements to begin with to build the tension, and then granular synthesis plays a big part in evolving that sound.”
An innovative, trailblazing voice for electronic music experimentation, Klsr’s work delves into explorations of light and textures, through the integration of real-time processes. The artist’s message has spread worldwide, and he continues to develop some of the most exciting sounds the scene has to offer, building on the work of his past and from others.
