Jash Teua – Alarm (EP – Aliens Production)
Genre/Influences: IDM, experimental, cinematographic.
Format: Digital.
Background/Info: Jash Teua is a Russian solo-project driven by Zalim Bekulov. He self-released this debut-EP in 2018 while Aliens Production re-released it last year. A debut album entitled “Amentia” has also been released.
Content: This work features 5 songs, leading the listener into a world of reverie, which is rapidly joined by subtle and intelligent sound treatments. The songs are mainly driven by a slow rhythm while electro-space like atmospheres accentuates the dreamy feeling. There’s a harmony between the influences, which are mainly into cinematographic music and IDM.
+ + + : This is the kind of project you might expect from Aliens Production. A work without real compromises, but into a total artistic freedom although related with IDM and soundtrack music. It has something of an accessible experiment. “My” is a fine exposure of this artist’s sound vision.
– – – : This kind of project remains complex and mainly meant to conquer a restricted number of listeners.
Conclusion: “Alarm” could be the right soundtrack for an imaginary surreal movie.
Best songs: “My”, “Black Mirror”.
Rate: (7).

Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
