Flint Glass, with his first release ‘Hierakonpolis’, appears already in the foreground of finest electronica.Like an architect who built up his constructions in different layers and channels, Flint Glass works with this method by using only sampling tools. "Hierakonpolis" could be compared, in some ways, to projects like Autechre, Beefcake or For a Space ; but the sounds of this album have already surged off on a totally different, and very personnal tangent. Almost everything imaginable in sounds is being collected, deconstructed and rebuilt afterwards. This is a unique and vast collection of sounds, ranging from catchy melodies and samples mercilessly interrupted by distorted beats. The cold polyrhythmic drumcodes are bet into a melted ambiance of different experimentations. It's the warm timbre of this dark ambient recording which creates its own unique sonic profile.
