Hear Dalhous go darkly cinematic on “Scope”
On April 30, Dalhous will release their new album, The Composite Moods Collection No. 2: Point Blank Range, via Denovali. The new album follows up its 2016 predecessor, House Number 44, with a series of electronic pieces that explore uncomfortable, otherworldly sonic terrain that nods to German and Italian horror soundtrack work from the ’70s and ’80s.
Today, they’ve shared a new track from the album, “Scope,” which carries an ominous, oozing darkness that’s both cinematic and cacophonous. It feels connected to a legacy of electronic music that’s tied to both John Carpenter and vintage industrial, and there’s a curious beauty even amid the menace. Though it begins with a crash, it slowly settles and eases into a misty sequence of ambience. It’s haunting and mesmerizing, and you can hear it below, along with a trailer for the album.
