DANADAX – Daxscapes II

The first album on the block for this week’s reviews is Daxscapes II by DANADAX. If you’ve been lurking this site long enough, the name DANADAX should sound familar. The old Intelligent Machinery catalog boasted two phenomenal early releases, Trips Into Places Unknown and Consciousness in Shifts of Decay. I missed the first incarnation of Daxscapes, but this album picks up right where earlier releases left off with more explorations into creepy noise. This album is less organic and more digital, but still manages to invoke an atmosphere of tension and eeriness that seems to be the forte of Curtis D. Cousins and whomever else he recruits for this project.

There’s definitely a maturity here that was missing in earlier releases; a greater sense of restraint and ability to conceptualize evolution over longer pieces.

[Rating:4/5]

This iteration of John Ingram was created in response to increased demand in global John Ingramness. Previous incarnations were less suited to fulfill this need.
