Jesse Briata<\/strong>\u00a0grins into the camera and slides another of his creations under the\u00a0Lockbox\u00a0<\/strong>moniker into the datastream. His new album\u00a0Demonoid\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>(HAUSMO 46)\u00a0cracks open the twenty-one-year-old Denver-based producer’s bottomless vault and gathers a selection of his recent experiments into an epic hour-long program. If 2014’s Hausu Mountain release\u00a0Prince Soul Grenade\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>(HAUSMO 14) marked a shift from the lo-fi beat explorations of Briata’s previous limited tape releases into the realm of hyperactive hi-resolution production,\u00a0Demonoid<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0stretches the\u00a0Lockbox<\/b>\u00a0project into a complete virtual menu of futures. Minimal hardware techno, pools of digital liquid, squelching noise loops, Playstation OST synth arrangements, tribal tom-tom workouts – all these styles and more warp into view for their moment before the portal to another zone opens.\u00a0Lockbox\u00a0<\/strong>stands at the top of his heap of corrupted samples and merges them into new glyphs for us to interpret. Detailed percussion patterns slap into head-bobbing grids through vapor clouds of noise texture. Other passages find Briata abandoning rhythm to explore a palette of syrupy drifting atmospheres haunted by cyber moans and crystalline synth melodies. For all its omnivorous juxtapositions,\u00a0Demonoid\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>finds its own logic and coherence in the personality of\u00a0Lockbox<\/strong>\u00a0himself: his sense of mischief, his curiosity and demand for novelty, his joy in competition with his insular instincts, the sorrow hidden in the light, and the humor in the darkness.<\/div>\n
