Brooklyn trio FORMA meld propulsive kosmiche synth melodies with entrancing textured drones for marauding excursions through deep space. Tight minimal drum machine beats drives the listener through pulsating fields of warm tones that gradually open out to expansive soundscapes populated by ethereal arpeggios, bombastic percussion and hearty drone chords that subtly shift the mood through experiments in tempo. Forma’s music combines the soothing introspection of contemporary ambient drone with the invigorating optimistic energy of classic krautrock. Their new record OFF/ON is available now from Editions Mego.
