After some lovely turns for 12th Isle, NNF and Constellation Tatsu, X.Y.R. commits a fragrant and humid tract of new age synths, kosmiche pulses and rustling field recordings to the charming Quiet Time Tapes series.
"X.Y.R. is Cherepovets musician Vladimir Karpov, who now resides in St. Petersburg. Standing for Xram Yedinennogo Razmuwlenuja, the name is a reference to Nikolai Gogol's 1842 "Dead Souls," in which one of the characters is pretentious enough to build his own "Temple of Solitary Contemplation."
Inspired by a mix of ambient, classical and film score music heard throughout his life, and especially the music he heard in Soviet children’s sci-fi videos - X.Y.R. uses Soviet synths and drum machines coupled with field recordings to produce rhythmicyet contemplative music with a mystic and natural feel. The accompanying Zine contains original photos taken by the artist."
