It was on account of his album for Organic Analogue ‘Ostati’, that Gigi Jikla, aka HVL, came to global prominence, having hitherto been one of Georgia’s best -kept secrets. And, on Hypercolour’s first release of the year, the Bassiani resident turns in a balanced and varied package which showcases his versatility and deft touch with knobs and buttons. If any one motif is more widespread than the other it’s probably breaks, with ‘Comply’, ‘Night of The Hunter’ and ‘Orphin Spill’ each being underpinned to varying degrees by them. In contrast ‘Armadillo Beat’ is a more abstract, atmospheric stomp into the void, and ‘u0802 [MX2]’
a more measured battery of beats. All in all a very satisfying package.
