Both Boddy & Sirros have a long, well documented love of analogue
modular synthesisers and the organic sounds and rhythms these
instruments can produce so in many ways it was inevitable that these two
musicians would collaborate at some point. Sirros started the ball
rolling with the composition of a series of both ambient soundscapes and
more structured multilayered compositions. These featured his unusual
pulsing, throbbing analogue percussion layers, warm soundscapes and
beguiling melodies that are in many ways a signature sound of Parallel
Worlds. Boddy took this raw material and shaped, arranged and sculpted
it into a series of seven inter-linked tracks that form a musical
narrative that runs throughout "Exit Strategy". Adding his glissando
keyboard sound that was premiered on his album Slide (DiN31 2008) Boddy
brought a real emotional focus to the album which, whilst it may seem to
journey through dark, subterranean territory has some glorious melodic
highlights.
"Exit Strategy" proves once again that the DiN label can conjure up
new combinations of sonic palettes from internationally renowned
electronic musicians.
