LABEL B.F.E Records, Frigio Records (FRV036, BFE64)
RELEASE DATE 2021
MEDIA FORMAT LP
An album of intricate minimal wave/post punk from Daniel Holt’s new project Human Figures. Holt is no stranger at Frigio, the Tennessee artist having featured on Frigio Allstars Vol 2 and Vol 3 with his mind-melting techno and having also 12″ in L.I.E.S. Records. You may also know him as the head of Ardetha Records as well as an impressive resume of experimental synth and ambient projects, such as synth duo Vault. Human Figures is a completely new and personal avenue of expression for Holt. “Footsteps” is liminal, lonely and misty with negative space between each instrument. Each note invokes a warm hypnagogic atmosphere, tinged with fluttering anxiety.
Through these eight tracks, this multifaceted musician shows another side of his art with guitars, bass-lines and drum machines. The mournful “Lifted Burden”, with its cowbells and echoing vocals swaddled in warm strings, sets the tone. Haunting notes are supported by a staccato beat as Holt´s melancholic vocals sail in “40 Days” before the bare brilliance of “An Open Heart.” A spread of influences is drawn on for Human Figures: the post-punk rawness of “For My Angel”, the synth romance of “Footsteps” the cold reductions of “Passing Beyond Body.” Sombre, stirring and superb. FFO of the minimal vibes of records like Solid Space “Space Museum”, Dark Day “Exterminating Angel”, The League Of Nations “Music For The New Depression”, Lives of Angels “Elevator To Eden”
