Corum

***“Place of the Hidden Sun is a minimal abstract mystery of human beatbox style hyper rhythmic arrangements weaved with strange fields of glimmering melody to create lo-fi spiraling pop ambience.  Hailing from Milan, Italy,  Adele H. uses looping repetitive flowing vocals worked into beautiful circular figures adding pulses of breath, claps and hand percussion paced on repeated short spoken pieces.  There's so much going on, and the vocals are more like another instrument, like a more psychedelic, more augmented textual brilliance.  Corum plays soft focus prismatic choral shimmers underpinned by woozy high end melodies molded into new warped shapes of sound.  The result is is strangely hypnotic, not just the words, but the percussive elements of recorded female vocals that are transformed into beats sprinkled amorphous shards of choral synthesizer, creating weirdly meditative trancelike expanses.”
