After the immersive split from Imre Kiss and Casi Cada Minuto, plus news of the impending release from Warsaw based Lutto Lento, Proto Sites is going further down the rabbit hole with a new six track story from Hungarian (de)constructionist S Olbricht. 'Trancess' promises hazy ambient techno and distorted house roots, ever exploring the gritty themes present in the consistent body of work for the likes of Opal Tapes, Gang of Ducks, Lobster Theremin, SicSic or his own Farbwechsel imprint. 

As if trapped in locked groove or tape loop the whole EP drifts in a circular motion. 'On's naked percussive patterns repeatedly fall over each other while the disorienting staccatos of 'Onlon' fade into the thick smoke soaked basements. 'Lacertid' featuring label mate Imre Kiss starts with a rattling sound which could be recordings of rain rapidly falling onto windows. When the greyscale synths kick in they rupture this descending bleakness with a strange otherness. 

Further down the spiral, from the agile 'Onlom' to the grainy blur of 'Trancess' and finally to the epic droning atmospheric synths of 'Cambran' things gets more distorted in time and space. Cambran as perhaps the most psychedelic exercise comes with bare bone drum hits, rough and raw underpinning the highly processed sound geography of this no mans land. It's in these details that Olbrichts work proves to be a powerful grower. An abstract end breaking down this purposeful degradation of sound into its most core components.
