Long-serving Brit in San Diego James Clements dons his familiar ASC guise once more, for a typically atmospheric trip into deep, ambient-influenced abstract techno for Canada s Silent Season imprint. As usual, there s much to admire, from the sparse percussion, glacial electronics and icy melodies of Deep Freeze, to the minimalist, modular sounding hum of closer Raging Seas. Arguably best of all, though, is Immersion, which sees Clements expertly combine early 90s style dreamy ambient chords, textures and melodies think Pete Namlook or early Irresistible Force with scraped metal textures and impeccable IDM beats
