about

Thresholds is the latest project from New York City-based composer, mixer, and producer Chris Moore.
Moore first began exploring electronic and experimental music in 1992, inspired by Throbbing Gristle and other early industrial luminaries. After releasing several records as While on Skam and Chocolate Industries in the late 1990s, Moore moved into record production and mixing, collaborating with TV On The Radio, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and even David Bowie. Today, in addition to Thresholds, Moore makes instrumental electronic music as Light Vortex and Polysilicon and is also a member of experimental pop outfit A.M. Boys.

lyrics

“Apparition IV” is an excerpt of a larger exploration into the interplay of drones and pulses and allowing one form to morph into another. This multitrack composition was recorded in the summer of 2020 mostly using an ARP Avatar that has been modified to add modular patch-points. Layers were built up one track at a time, starting with a drone created by cross-modulating one oscillator's pulse width with the raw output of the other oscillator. Looping envelopes were used to create pulses of varying shapes, and a final layer was added with a Chroma Polaris, using free-running LFOs to create an ever-changing counterrhythm.

The album which first introduced me to ambient, although not the first one I owned... an experience that is both wistful and soothing, never too dark yet not suited to being described as joyful. One of Hainbach's finest works. Dimitriy Dzyuba
