CD REVIEWS:
THIN AIR
Check out the feature article in the Jan/Feb 2005 issue of XLR8R magazine that covers THIN AIR, along with audiovisual installations, past works and future projects: XLR8R interview, issue #84
"Here is Kadet Kuhne's follow-up to Seismic, her fine IDM album from 2001. Since then she's relocated to LA, but she hasn't made any radical departures in her music. That's a good thing 'cause her past endeavors have been pretty darn great, wholly enveloping listens. Now, whether the "thin air" of the title is in reference to that which you might "vanish into" or that which you find at high altitudes, we do not know. But we can say that regardless, the title suits this album well. Some of her sounds can be fleeting and ghostly, while the more severe and imposing ones may leave listeners a wee bit out of sorts or short of breath. Characterized by swishy, cricket-y textures, gentle cloudy drones and rounded deep bass thuds, This Air is a considerably more subdued ambient affair overall than its kinetic, glitchy predecessor. Also, although these sounds were originally part of Sensorium, her audiovisual installation collaboration with Reto Schmid/testrun which showed in Switzerland, LA and here in SF, Thin Air may be best listened to on headphones in isolation. Nice!"

SEISMIC
"If the first wave of glitch was about reducing dance music down to a few
previously accidental elements, the second wave is taking those same elements
and rebuilding grooves with them, however primitive and minimal. Kadet's SEISMIC
demands that you listen hard, but rewards your effort with tiny details like
the creepy voices buried in "Threshold." Some of the album's moments
reach near-total abstraction, then pull back toward more repetitive structures,
with backing pads and gutted, howling synths."
"Listening to this new release from SF solo IDM/electronicist Kadet is an almost multi-sensory experience. A plethora of wonderfully itchy glitches, thick tenuous throbs and metallic percussive gasps probe your ears. Some sounds actually made my teeth buzz as if I'd chomped down on some aluminum foil - an impressive feat unto itself. The latter tracks gradually sink into a much more deeply fluid abyss - like the echo-y sensation of slowly drifting to the bottom of a pool."
