Japanese experimental sound artist kent watari debuts on Phantom Limb with new album subtraction in spiral, coding deep sonics to quantum-percussion and collapsing, post-IDM glitchscapes based on a meticulously constructed metaphysical thought experiment. 'This work is centred around a very personal philosophical model', writes Kent Watari (b. Tokyo, 1993). 'I have constructed a metaphysical model of thought, employing concepts from philosophy and science. This thought model centres on a recursive structure. The infinite is compressed into the finite world of reality, beginning with a scene where 'something happens or has happened'. Thought then unfolds through every possible development before scattering once more into the infinite beyond. Then, it returns once more to the juncture where 'something happens or has happened'.
