Platform 23 presents the 2nd (of 4) EPs of music from Exquisite Corpse.  In Between Rhythms II, a deeper, ambient, percussive selection again returns to the project of Robbert Heijnen.  

As part of the post punk / alternative Tilburg music scene of the mid-80s, Robbert influences of expression and interest in industrial and EBM is apparent.   The move from the metallic sounds (as a member) of the early incarnation of Psychick Warriors Of Gaia to embrace the sounds emanating from late 80s Chicago and Detroit saw the band develop from their early cassette ‘1989’ to the fully formed and now revered 1992 debut album, Ov Biospheres And Sacred Grooves (A Document Ov New Edge Folk Classics).

The parallels between this deep, trippy and haunting melodies meets tribal percussions, highlights some similarities of PWOG and Exquisite Corpse’s outlook during this period.   Looking further, upon leaving the former, the bands sound developed a harder edge, with more focus on rhythm and their exploratory properties indicating the nature of Heijnen influence and part in PWOG and how this was further explored when going solo in 1992.  

The release starts with Shadow Play from his second album, 1993’s Inner Light.   Darkness descends to echo’d drums as the vestiges of developing European techno worlds can be heard in the distance.  What A Life, from the Reassembling Reality EP, brings things down with an ambient beginning moving to Reich loops and sequencing that create shifting melodic horizons.  A personal favourite of the artist, the EP saw the realization of the collaborations with Debbie Jones in design and life.

With the consistent presence of ‘third member’ – in mixing, engineering and support – from Tim Freeman, the songs in the series have a unique, but familiar and inclusive nature.  This can again be heard in Sacrifice from the highly sought after Dream Night Dance Music album.  The interplay of drums, claps and swing are enough alone to warrant acceptance.   To close, Tepu returns to the  Inner Light album.   Darkness, Questioning.  Calling.  Second(s) ending.
