Lisene - Science Friction [Album] [On Rotation]

[Hensmon]

Upcoming album from Lisene, who has made some nice music the past few years. Only one track released so far.

“This album has been 15 years in the making and represents a culmination of everything I’ve worked towards in defining my own sound and style without letting myself be pigeonholed. I’m immensely proud of each track - it really reflects where I was at musically while making this, while giving a glimpse into my future sound. This is a record that deserves to be played on the finest sound systems and hi-fis, and I couldn’t be more happy with how it’s turned out. Dive in and enjoy!”

Science Friction

Very mishmashy..equivalent to the most dull progpsy from the mid 2000s. Its not terrible but its not really that interesting either. Just based on the track above ofc..

Lisene hasn't done a lot in this space lately, nice to see him returning to the trancey stuff. Hard to gauge this one right now, the downtempo and darker stuff is sounding great though.

agree with Daysleeper and unfortunately this is what I find with a lot of the newer producers trying to emulate the classic sound. They are missing that extra ingredient which made tracks so special.

Nova Prospekt does sound cool

Here's the rest. For me, three tracks hit in a unique/memorable way (Deep Bass Nine, Nova Prospekt and Machine Spirit). The rest are well produced enough, but likely wouldn't be On Rotation for me, pun intended .
