SOUL SCANNER


AGT has been flexing some spacey "Disco Ambience" for a bit now, completely taking his time to flesh out and break down each piece. Six minutes, ten minutes, twelve minutes. These jams just keep going, trance-like states induced multiple times per track (and apparently his live stuff is even "MORE spaced out"). The length of AGT's songs reminds me of something like Lindstrom & Prins Thomas, though their sound is a built more on dramatic tension. On the other hand, AGT fills any lingering space with more and more drum tracks and synthesizer stutters, becoming disorienting and claustrophobic the longer a song goes. If these couple samples aren't proof enough, take a dip in his deep, deep Soundcloud page, which also includes some live takes worth checking out.
