A carefully controlled chaos and sense of drama permeates this sonic mosaic, a frenetic and heady exploration. ACVilla’s collage-like storytelling heightens the sharp, sudden movements and countless timbres in “Worlds In A Life (An Idea Of What It Is).” Piano strings bellow from the depths, ridden by rapid-fire synth explorations and percussive drops. The imagery plays out like a mix between a psychedelic travelogue and nightmarish memories buried deep in the subconscious. Thollem’s voice comes in from all sides riding sinuous string patterns, leaving us wondering if we’ve missed a hidden message. So much of the framework of “World In A Life” is cryptic and in constant motion, but the progressive flow of image and sound is mesmerizing, leaving us parched and wanting more. This is exquisite.
Worlds In A Life is a new multimedia project by nomadic duo, Thollem and ACVilla. Pick up a copy of the album on ESP-Disk HERE.
