Anderson O'Mealy I’ll take you up on your offer once again and vow to be more generous in the future Nick. Today is my last day of mandatory two-week quarantine after visiting the mainland to attend my 90-year-old mother’s funeral. She simply went to sleep the evening of her birthday, painlessly and gracefully. We should all be so lucky, and are fortunate to have souls such as yours in our lives to help provide comfort, healing, and relaxation in the the world we find ourselves in. Mahalo and Aloha from Waik

Pablo Adaskabar One of Mick's classics. Own the original CD but an essential bandcamp purchase too. Visitors is an absolute corker, not quite like anything else. Music for The Dreaming. Favorite track: Visitors.

about

Mick Chillage could very well be the hardest working man in electronica, taking the reins of that position from the late Pete Namlook. What is more startling about the seemingly large quantity of work available from him in the past few years (and upcoming as well) is the high level of quality control he maintains throughout; nary a note is ill-placed, misaligned, or wasted. Chillage’s working methods are efficient to say the least, exemplary to say the most; the consummate musician, he’s not one to sit still or allow his muse to stagnate, equally at home channelling any number of sub-genres, be it fleet electro or galvanizingly intense atmospherica.

His latest for Carpe Sonum after the wonderful Saudade release finds the erstwhile sonic frontiersman alternating a beautifully involving series of tracks that deftly straddle spheres both inner and outer. (M)odes paints Chillage as introspective, questing, soul-searching; the plaintive piano chords and twinkling synths of “Nico’s Gate” suggest ancient rituals of deep contemplation, a re-examining of spiritualism as much as a vault heavenwards across the stars. The paragon of beauty that is “Midnight Mist” illustrates precisely what Chillage does best, digging down into the circuitboards of his trusty synths to exact the revealing science of gods. It’s at once splendorous and awe-inspiring to behold, (M)odes of (in)alienation as gripping as they come.
