Biographie de l'artiste pour Tiger Village

Step Into Tiger Village's Laboratory Bunker Located Somewhere Outside Cleveland And Catch A Glimpse Of The Scientist At Work. Flanked On All Sides By Analog Synths MIDI Controllers Tape Decks And Drum Machines With Patch Cables Splayed Out From Chassis To Chassis Like Tangled Octopi Tim Thornton Pieces Together His Baroque Electronic Compositions From The Choir Of Squelching Voices Bursting From His Mechanical Arsenal. As One Of The Legion Of Tinkerers That Define Ohio's Fertile Experimental DIY Culture Thornton Orbits The Noise Scene Along A Path Overlapped With Hausu Mountain Affiliates Like Moth Cock Witchbeam And Jeremy Bible Co-Defining An Independent Strain Of Tonal Exploration And Mind-Warping Disfiguration Of Form. While Thornton's Peers Plunge Headfirst Into An Abyss Of Static-Soaked Textures And Improv Abstraction His Own Practice Presents A Nuanced Approach To Synth Arrangement That Proves Over The Course Of Tiger Village V's Forty-Three Overstuffed Minutes To Be Just As Meticulous As It Is Mangled. Thornton's Compositions Dart Through Progressively Complex Passages Animated By Iridescent Leads And Structural Feints That Shatter Our Expectations Of Any Logical Resolution. Disparate Drum Patterns Layer Together Into Rhythmic Organisms That Clatter Through His Busy Mixes In A State Of Constant Flux. Fragmented Melodies Pop Into View Amid Panning Drone Pads And Arpeggios Subsuming Quadrants Of The Spread Into Dense Harmonic Clusters Possessed Of Too Much Detail To Fully Glean On First Playback. Tracks Like The Booming Opener "Alalia" Or The Woozy "Emilie Sea " Unfold Across Manic Trajectories Far Removed From The Notions Of Stasis Or Recursion Splintering Without Notice Into Polyrhythmic Beatdowns Or Swathes Of All-Consuming Square Wave Drift. Thornton Balances These Maximal Experiments With The Garbled Tape Loops Detuned Oscillator Yelps And Lulls Of Infinite Sustain Aired In The Ambient Oases Of Album Centerpiece "Pink Chain III Moon " And "And I Don't Really Care That Much." These Elements Reach Our Headspaces At A Remarkable Level Of Tonal Detail With Each Beat And Synth Voice Mastered By Thornton To A Standard Of Fidelity In Keeping With His Day Job As A Quality Control Supervisor At A Vinyl Production Plant. From Its First Solitary Bleeps To Its Final Labyrinthine Manifestation He Constructed The Revolving Synth Mandala Of Tiger Village V As One Mind Laced Into The Grid Allied With The Machines Fused At The Knobs.
