With a now continuously expanding scene of contemporary experimental electronic music, many cassette labels have managed to push artists into new international appreciation. This has been the case with young L.A.-based producer Neil Reinalda, who has experimented with electronic music under his PHORK alias for about two years now. Though that may not be an enormous span of time, looking at Reinalda’s discography reveals a strong series of mixtapes, some notable singles and a heartwarming discography of 6 different albums released on cassette by outstanding music imprints like NNA Tapes, Orange Milk Records, Dirty Pillows Records, Opal Tapes, and now Noumenal Loom, where this latest effort was recently put up for preorder – pending its official release today.

Entitled American Tao, the 9-track album builds a remarkable ambient/techno-tainted atmosphere in which Reinalda further resolves to create a whole environmental of sound, divided into 9 cuts, deploying his characteristic beats over deconstructed loop backgrounds. Structures of low and deep synth and percussion lines wrap everything into a wrinkled and rhythmic progression, with other novel effects, reconfigured samples, and beat repetitions that narrate American Tao‘s principal texture. I could easily say this is one of my favorite releases on Noumenal Loom, but your doing yourself a disservice if you’ve yet to peruse their entire catalog.
