Hypnagog
Sometimes when I think I can't sleep, i actually am part-way asleep. Or at least, not completely awake. For hours I'd been lying on the my bed trying to unpick the knotted tangle of events and fragments in my mind, I'd have said I was one hundred per cent all-the-way awake with no chance of sleeping, But now, standing in the corridor outside, I felt light, half-focused, unsteady on my feet. The things I'd been thinking back on the bed, those intricate thought traints I'd been putting together now seemed to be all flickering lights and groundless leaps of logic - ideas warped and twisted by the un-sense that lives at the edge of sleep......
Extract from The Raw Shark Texts by Steven Hall
Hypnagog is a new experiment of Felix Greenlees' (Terrafractyl, Mental Extensions).
After years of writing Psychedelic dance music and experimenting with plenty of other sonic forms, Felix has recently been listening to a lot more downtempo psychedelic breaks, IDM and the like, and felt it was time to try and combine these styles with his own to try and create some kind of hybrid, beat driven yet melodic sound.
