Causa Sui drummer and El Paraiso visual designer Jakob Skøtt unleashes his most personal vision to date, Instrumentality. His one-man-band formula of synths, drums, and effects serves him as well as ever. This latest set is Skøtt at his most ripe; the grooves are deeper, more stripped down to essentials, yet maintain the vibrant seamless mix of airy timing, drowning drones, and sludgy synth riffs. The album was recorded a few months after Jakob experienced a brief, yet painful spontaneous leak of brain fluid. Instrumentality draws on that experience in its titles and artwork, as well as works as its musical muse. It's music that constantly dives inwards; ever repetitive, yet constantly moving, from micro movements in Skøtt's poly-rhythms, to the five song cycles diving to the depths of the splintered nerves reconnecting with their natural flow.
