Review: On his latest album, Denver, Colorado musician and self-styled "former USAF baby-catching medic turned hippie abstract sound bath architect" Patrick R. Park enrols in the Berlin school, breaking from his premiership of the wondrous Ethereal Mother Tapes to lock down a decadal, decadent LP's worth of cosmic-not-cosmic loops. Echoing post-punk and glam-synth of the kind that might soundtrack a Stranger Things spinoff - but more maximal, glued together with the Pritt-stick of soft-clipped compression - the likes of 'Terror', 'Quantized' and 'Paramount' pin down the floating pappuses of true crime docu-music, platform video games with their pitchy arpeggios, and coulombs of dungeon-crawling aeration, the latter motif especially repeated on near-closer 'Zenith'. Use this record to soundtrack your next trek through Shadow Labyrinth, Evergrace or Wizardry 5.
