Kuedo


Kuedo is Jamie Teasdale, who since quietly disbanding the Vex'd vehicle he formerly operated with Roly Porter, has been moving towards a slower, ornately detailed sound with his Kuedo project. But he's now re-emerged with a stripped down and luxurious variant on 'Severant', clearly referencing Chicagoan Footwork and 808-driven Coke and Road Rap, with strong traces of Vangelis-style synth opulence. Compared with his previous records, there's a huge amount of space inside 'Severant', evoking brutalist megastructures and sci-fi fantasy architecture, a sort of dreamy hyperspace allowing the listener to indulge in their own personal fantasies, and we gather that's kinda the intention; says Jamie As reality shapes imagination and escapism affects choices in the real world, there is a strange relational loop between the two and the space in between the two. Suspended in this interzone of whirring 808 mechanics and arcing, glass synth superhighways is a pretty lush place to be, and made all that more immersive by the sheer articulation of his sound design, from the crisp snap of his snare rolls to the billowing bass pollutants and phthalocyanine synth hues. It's a deeply romantic album, utterly in love with the machine/human interface and imbued with a futurist sincerity. Read more on Last.fm.
