HYBR:ID VOL. 2 IS THE SECOND INSTALLMENT OF ALVA NOTO’S HYBR:ID SERIES INITIATED IN 2021. THE NEW ALBUM CAPTURES THE MUSIC COMMISSIONED TO SCORE RICHARD SIEGAL’S ECTOPIA PERFORMED IN 2021 BY TANZTHEATER PINA BAUSCH WITH SHOOTING INTO THE CORNER (2008-09) BY ANISH KAPOOR. BUILDING UPON THE BLEND OF IMMERSIVE DUB AND ELECTRONICA FROM THE FIRST INSTALLMENT, HYBR:ID VOL. 2 TAKES THE LISTENER ON A JOURNEY INTO THE REALM OF INTRICATELY MANIPULATED DIGITAL PRODUCTION.

THROUGHOUT THE ALBUM, CARSTEN NICOLAI SUMMONS PRECISE RHYTHMIC PATTERNS THAT GRACEFULLY HOVER, REMINISCENT OF CELESTIAL BODIES ORBITING IN PERFECT COSMIC UNISON. THE SONIC LANDSCAPE GRADUALLY UNFOLDS WITH SOMBER AND BROODING TONES, INCORPORATING SPACIOUS SOUND DESIGN, ETHEREAL ATMOSPHERES, AND CASCADING METALLIC PERCUSSIONS. THESE ELEMENTS ARE DELICATELY CRAFTED WITH ARTI
