James Devane returns with another adept investigation into minimal techno’s spaces in between. »Searching« serves as both companion to »Beauty is Useless« and the next logical step in James’ exploration of process as guiding compositional tool. Conceptually simple, technically robust, the end result elicits both an undeniable groove and a trove of detail for listeners willing to go deep. In his own words: »These recordings are the result of chance. Using hours of source material, everything was ›chosen‹, manipulated, and assembled at random via custom software without concern for key, tempo, measures, or rhythm. A search button and a save button«.
