Finale
Mikrokristal gives us no more than a Christian name - Adomas. Shying away from any additional personal or geographic specificity - since he also hides his address - this musician has used a recent web-chat to admit a constant striving towards 'beat-less soundscape paintings.' Activity is more important than identity. His decent musical ideas comes togheter as a conceptual long player, with his nine tracker 'Finale' he flirts with lush 4/4 oriented and beatless electronica melted into jamaican dub traditions and linked to always changing bits and noises. 'Drowsy Forest' and 'Dub River' is responsible to draw an oceanic milieu, with splashing waves and lazy dub impact from the finest. 'Klumpes' sets a higher tempo with dark samples and sinister overall feel. 'Experimental Tree' and 'Oaze' both are proof of the professional usage of studio gears with maximalist implementation, with sudden changes and tweeting FX samples. 'Once Upon on a Cloud', 'Pasvaites' and 'Vaivorykshte' is capable to invite us on the dancefloor, with fast, rigid beats rolling on dreamy landscapes. As an outro track 'Leidziasi Saule' switch back to the experimental world, breaking the beats as a maniac put the icing on the cake, closing the concept with a general subtle resting point.
