Bologna's Yerevan Tapes project vivid sci-fi sound designs from producer/signer Marie Davidson and sound designer Invisible Church, making up the duo's first collaborative work, notably starring Theo Parrish playing cymbal on "Ten Years". Marie's vocals signify a ghost in the machine presence on "Collage". "Never Release The Tension" meanwhile isolates and focuses in on a blunted, atonal sort of post-industrial sound design recalling Mika Vainio in its brooding pressure. But the best is definitely saved for last with "Ten Years", where speaker-drooping subs underline sheets of steely grey dissonance, punctuated by the patter and splash of Theo Parrish's cymbal work.
