Sarmoung is the debut release from Miami, Florida's Fsik Huvnx on Other Electricities. Mastered by Edward Adames at 3DVHS Studios, this thickset, richly textured statement is comprised of two side-length suites nearing thirty minutes each and divided into four separate movements.
The music is deceptively simple. Upon initial impact, it could be described employing conservative signifiers like "drone," "ambient," and "ethereal." But upon relinquishing signification altogether, and allowing the sonic stimulus at hand to bloom and tear itself down again in glacially slow cycles of birth and death, trance-like epiphanies are revealed like glowing marble statues unsheathing themselves from velvet casing.
T. Wheeler Castillo designed and printed the artwork at Turn-Based Press for Fsik Huvnx’s Sarmoung tape, which Other Electricities released in April 2014.
