Biography

We find Kassem Mosse at his most stripped-down, rudimentary under The Siege of Troy aegis. Deglazing the sweeter, melodic elements of previous outings, he's coined the term "jacknoise" to describe his current aesthetic of dry, echoic drum machines, sluggish monotones and grey distortion. Tracks scout a desolate, burned-out soundscape formed from awkwardly tessellating rhythms and somnolent motifs that dissolve and resolve at will; track structures aren't beholden to dancefloor needs, are allowed to fold inwards and flop or repeat with keen intuition. The cassette format feels a perfect medium to articulate this sound, offering the constant stability of murk ferric distortion to envelope his haphazardly collapsing dimensions.
