Roger Gerressen – The First Android Church Of Claude Shannon

If it feels like we’ve been waiting a minute for some fresh material from the ever-excellent Roger Geressen, then the wait has been worth it as he gifts us this exemplary extended EP which borders on mini-album territory. The Dutch producer has evolved his sound in subtle ways over the years, but his affinity for mellow atmospheres abounds on this drop for Chapelle XIV, leading in with the relaxed broken beat machine soul of ‘Other Dimensions’ before switching into the more heads-down roll of ‘Oceans Of Ganymede’ and ‘Solar Flare’s winsome synth lines and snappy electro rhythm section. ‘Future Visions’ continues the exploration of broad melodic vistas and ‘Moons Of Mercury’ goes in hard on the delays for shimmering results. ‘User Interface’ completes the picture with a perfect sign off on this refined and immersive six-tracker from an artist you know you can trust.
