Boomkat Product Review:

Soundboy supreme, Ossia sends us reeling with an immense debut album of technoid dub brutalism for his staunch allies at Blackest Ever Black. A massive RIYL Demdike Stare, Wasteland, Jay Glass Dubs, The Bug, Jon Hassel...

Long in the works and properly worth the wait, ‘Devil’s Dance’ is a deliriously strong summation of Ossia’s singular style. Dread-filled and fevered, it marks the Bristol/Berlin-hailing producer as a master at negotiating negative space and bending styles to his will, taking what he needs from grime & dubstep, jazz, techno and post-industrial music, and warping it all with an uncanny sleight of hand that only comes from proper dedication to dub craft.

Most brilliantly, nothing is square or regular in Ossia’s sound world. Edges are consistently smudged and slanted, sounds bleed into one another with organic form, but, like a backyard/spareroom ganja farmer, his skill lies in pruning punctuations, allowing his forms to grow wild, whilst knowing where and when to cut and splice. Now harvested, his crop is effectively a highly potent batch with a perfect balance of meditative and psychoactive content.

From the gauntleted noise sculpture of ‘Concrete’, to the weightless skank and skronk of ‘Radiation’, thru the heaving masses of his ‘Devil’s Dance’ and ‘Hell Version’, thru the spectral ephemera of ‘Inertia’ and the 23 minutes of perceptive chicanery in ‘Vertigo’, you have one of the strongest dub records you'll hear for time.

I stumbled upon this page, curiosity, and then the quality of the record convinced me to keep listening to the album very enjoyable.

Initially, I preferred the classic garage 60 version, but over time, the Stooges outfit with Raw Power finishes has proven to be more solid. It's something to suggest without hesitation to those who don't know them and become enchanted by some trendy name, believing they have found "n" roll rock.

if you hear the music, the image is perfect.
A rating for the album? If you hear the music with the perfect image, it could be unnecessarily from 0 to 5, but also 6 and 7, if you’ve understood everything.

I want to listen to the music before judging the words.

beautiful, I always wonder how much randomness plays a role in these works

I really like the Beatles, but I wonder about the meaning of such operations.

they're not my type, but what did they do to be treated like this?

Great collection.
Definitely not just for completists, not bottom of the barrel, but pieces of high caliber that showcase, if needed, the genius of E. M.
