Drew McDowall's New Mix Is An Esoteric Trip Through Drone, Ambient And Modular Noise
The modular maestro steps up for an absorbing sonic excursion for the Workin' Nights mix series.
Drew McDowall is a master of weaving together abstract, transcendent sounds.
The former member of cult industrial outfit Coil has, over the last few years, released a formidable string of records that transport the listener to liminal states of consciousness and auditory attention—something he discussed with TEB editor Chloé Lula in a recent interview about his album, The Third Helix.
His “In Equal Fault” mix for Workin’ Nights mines a similar terrain of hallucinatory and ritualistic sonic practice. The hour-long mix features a diverse string of pieces, spanning extended drone works, wild modular synthesis compositions and contemporary club music.
