Gonçalo F. Cardoso – Exotic Immensity – 2LP

More than two years after the release of “Impressões de Outra Ilha“, Discrepant‘s head honcho returns home under his birth name with the appropriately titled “Exotic Immensity“.

Conjured from the seeds of an exhibition of dioramas at Le Bon Accueil in Rennes, this double LP feels quietly epic in scope, a sprawling travelogue through imagined scenarios and what if possibilities. Discarding the more rough around the edges collages of previous works under a myriad of aliases – Discogs it, if you will -, Cardoso‘s approach here is more meticulously composed, with seamless transitions within his own personal soundworld giving way to this hallucinated landscape of field recordings, subtle electronic tweaks, cascading patterns, queasy ambiences and kösmiche-like synth harmonies.
