Innercity's Hans Dens has already been deservedly lauded for his brilliant 7 inch
Dada Les Apocalypses / The Pyramids of Northeast Belgium on
NNA Tapes in August. Now, the Antwerp resident has a full-length out on fellow Belgian imprint
Aguirre. Sadly we haven't had the chance to listen to
Terrestreality yet, but if the guys over at
Boomkat are correct then the album is "
most excellent" (and as a general rule, we believe the guys over at Boomkat). Anyway, to promote
Terrestreality, Dens has assembled a new, musically very closely related full-length named
The Earth As Arch and Cold End and made it available for free. The piece contains only four tracks - "The Earth as Arch" parts 1 to 3, and "Cold End" - but has a running time of more than an hour, and its dense, psychedelic soundscapes hovering between h-pop murk and pan-European proto-techno belong to the most unexpected yet most absorbing listening experiences this year.
