Dope sound design around 2:00. Well done 🔥

this is massive. love the granular sounds, if they do more of this style work they might become one of my favorite projects. Kind reminds me of when Amon Tobin came out with ISAM and totally went in this new direction, I always hoped that lead to more people making stuff in that veign but it didnt happen.,

Then u probably missed plenty of stuff!
They have patreon page where they post at least once per month a new track. Also they released 2 EPs: 'Intervals Above' and 'Silk Wave' after 'Polychrome' LP.
Great music!!

IMO a fair amount of the new EP was a bit retready, but this one really standed out as something new, I really love it

Not my favorite EP as a whole from them but this one is amazing
same here. its a little better than their previous EP, Silk Wave, but I found both to be rather lacking compared to Polychrome and everything before.
Agreed. Was super excited to see them releasing on vision but they got a little too lost in the glitch for my personal taste. I like silk wave better though but yeah those two are my least fave.
I remembered when their EPs tend to have a melodic composition at the end (View from Above, Lost in Thought). Sanctuary was full of these tracks and the Movember collabs were an annual treat before they sadly discontinued the tradition.
These were the songs that made me fall in love with KOAN Sound. Their gritty, abrasive songs have great sound design and all, but these are nothing like their softer side. Looking forward to more of such work from them.
It's on vision so I can't really be surprised. Vision is one of my favorite labels but I'm just not crazy about what they did for it. I'm sure we'll see more of what we love.
Traverse is pretty killer too
That’s my second fave on the EP haha. Those two are pretty far above the other two imo
what is your favorite Koan project?
Man. That’s tough. Probably polychrome because I’m a sucker for albums but sanctuary is probably my favorite EP followed by forgotten myths/intervals above. Lost in thought is my all time favorite song of theirs though
Polychrome is just incredible
Sanctuary is def my favorite 😍
The older glitch hop stuff is my favorite, sly fox is probably my favourite song by them. The funk blaster ep has some classics like "meanwhile, in the future"
Dude yeah!!!!
Their new stuff is tight but old school KOAN is top notch. I remember the first time I heard sly fox I was living in Berlin at the time sitting on my balcony having a smoke. I'll never forget that moment. Good shit.
huuuuuuge fan of the Dynasty EP. That super wet clap on the titled track gets me every time.
