GEIOM - Island Noise
BERKANE SOL
CD // £11.99
DUBSTEP / GRIME
Catalogue Number: BRKCD001

Making good use of his extensive musical vocabulary and broad interest in just about as many musical styles as you could bring to mind, Kamal Joory here delivers his latest full-length, and the first for his very own Berkane Sol imprint. As opposed to most of his dubstep brethren, Geiom’s musical legacy is loosely rooted in IDM and his releases for the Neo Ouija label, alongside the more organic, hybrid compositions together with Morgan Caney for their excellent “Magic Radios” album.

After a period of dormancy, Joory brought the Geiom moniker back to life last year, with a new-found interest in Dubstep. As the sales notes describe perfectly well there’s a “tropical melancholy” at the heart of this album, and the melodies at the core of each of these tracks are in the classic Geiom vein - emotive and layered.

Drawing as much inspiration from Delia Derbyshire as he does from Kode 9, Geiom enriches his sound sources with a keen willingness to diversify and evolve through each of the 12 tracks here, from the slightly John Carpenter-esque eeriness of the aptly titled “Futurerustic”, to the Persian halfstep of the excellent “Farski”.

In a year that dubstep albums seem to have finally come into their own, Geiom’s “Island Noise” is the most organic and possibly the least conventional offering you’ll pick up this year, and a timely return to the fray from this clearly talented producer. Recommended.
