The Detroit Escalator Company - Black Buildings EP mp3 album

such an excellent release, put this on and zone out and you can pick it up for a portion of the $40AU that I paid on release. Highly Recommended!

Exceedingly enjoyable and easy to appreciate from a wide range of musical backgrounds. I use it as a musical taste-tester on new friends, and it has won many over to exploring DEC and other unique Detroit artists. Buy it at any reasonable price.

Neil Ollivierra continues his subtle takeover of Detroit with his Black Buildings EP, under his pseudonym, The Detroit Escalator Co. Once again, he produces some of the best electronic music under the sun. “The Inverted Man (Dreaming)” is a spin-off of one of his tracks from his Soundtrack (313) album, but the other tracks continue the drifting, extended chords that made that album a classic. “Plumb” seems deceptively simple but reaches some startling depths of emotion; “Scram” adds some more momentum in the form of quick notes, but it never overreaches or goes for an unseemly rhythm. It’s (sadly) a short EP -- but packed with emotion nonetheless.
