Tessares - Dgohn [LP]

dgoHn (pronounced "John") is the moniker of John Cunnane, who hails from Essex. 'Tessares,' his fourth album, is playful, unconventional drum & bass that contrasts sparse effects and melodic elements with complex drumfunk and breakcore. He often uses unusual time signatures and head-spinning polyrhythms inspired by jazz and math rock, sometimes within the same track. Somehow he makes it sound effortless, and occasionally pretty as well, keeping a fine balance that never feels punishing.
