about

Essential wax transfer of Topdown Dialectic’s elusive 2013 debut, originally issued as the final title from short-lived American media imprint Tailings. From its first swooning seconds, the project’s signature palette takes hold: fractal laptop gauze, whispered rhythm networks, and disembodied systems flickering in elevated spheres of smeared circuitry. This is music of immateriality and residue, ambient techno ghost files found in dormant sectors of the cloud.

As a process not a person, Topdown Dialectic encourages listeners to focus solely on the sound, devoid of narrative or autobiographical frame. The sensation is liberating. Unnamed and unknown, opaque and oblique, each track is a transfixing microcosm of glitch, mystery, and murmuring emotion. A synergy of fragments and echoes and accidents, immaculately conceived, forever unfolding and unfinished.
