zake aka Zach Frizzell and Almost Silent aka Guy Teixeira come together here for thier first collaborative album, Wind Rust. It has four long and widescreen tracks inspired by natural elements like weather, erosion and decay and finds Teixeira using the Lyra-8 analogue synth to create generative, living sound textures then Frizzell randomly assembled these stems to form a new and dynamic composition. Tracks like 'Thence' offer intense, swirling soundscapes with tactile strings and field recordings, while 'Dross' and 'Hewn' explore evolving synth harmonies and fuzzy textures. The album culminates with 'Quel' which is a powerful end to Wind Rust which merges natural forces and human emotion into a deeply immersive sounds.
