'Taking our time' has become a sort of ESP modus operandi, often proving that when variables are left to cook long enough-relationships, styles, politics, moments in culture-we may collectively yield a more considered result. Once in a 'Blue Moon', we set sights on a record that conducts some strange voodoo, some rare combination of elements that commands our entire being. Entering our atmosphere with a concise 6-track debut, dub technician Brendon Moeller has brought us exactly that. Although we've long been admirers Brendon's work, separated by only a few degrees-he and ESP's Lovefingers are the same age and shared a decade of salad days in New York City-it took another decade before enough courage was mustered to suggest we actually work together. Our reticence has seen Brendon's aesthetic and palette evolve over the years, and the label has simultaneously sculpted a tone of it's own, but now we're more than proud to finally marry his highly refined output with our, let's say, 'deliberate' appetite. 'Blue Moon' touches everywhere Brendon has been as an artist-from the obtuse corners of ambient to IDM, dub techno to liquid drones and bass-yet the vocabulary is honed and succinct, relying on a very intentional handful of expressions. This is almost an exercise in restraint, all 6 tracks are delivered from a disciplined and committed point-of-view, but what we find most captivating is the exploration that this allows in terms of depth, texture, fluidity and pacing. There is a complexity hidden in plain sight that begs to be studied, a comfort that allows us to slip inside like a warm bath, an addictive tingling sensation that we must prolong indefinitely. Even as we write this testimonial, the album is going on a fourth repeat and we languish the intervening silence between tracks. This is being under the spell of Brendon's 'Blue Moon'.Tracklisting:A1. Deep Blue A2. Feast A3. Vibrations B1. Depth Charge B2. Ruins B3. Signals
