Our Take

MIRA CALIX's latest offering, Absent Origin, is a sonic journey unlike any other. The experimental electronic artist has crafted a mind-bending album that pushes the boundaries of sound and takes listeners on a wild ride through a kaleidoscope of genres.

From the opening track, it's clear that CALIX is not afraid to take risks and swim against the mainstream current. Each song on Absent Origin feels like a sonic experiment, with layers upon layers of intricate beats and glitchy synths that create a mesmerising tapestry of sound.

CALIX's production skills are on full display here, as she deftly weaves together elements of ambient, IDM, and avant-garde electronica to create a truly unique listening experience. Tracks like "Lost in Translation" and "Fragments of Reality" showcase her ability to create dreamy, otherworldly atmospheres that draw the listener in and refuse to let go.

But it's not all abstract soundscapes and experimental beats - Absent Origin also contains some surprisingly catchy melodies and infectious rhythms that will have you tapping your foot and nodding your head in no time. CALIX proves that she is not just a master of the avant-garde, but also a true pop genius.

In conclusion, MIRA CALIX's Absent Origin is a bold, boundary-pushing album that demands to be heard. Whether you're a die-hard fan of experimental electronica or just looking for something a little out of the ordinary, this album is sure to leave a lasting impression. Trust us, you won't want to miss out on this one.
