  • Peter Van Hoesen and Yves De Mey will collaborate as Sendai for their second full-length, due out on February 24th. The two artists first teamed up back in 2009 for two 12-inches on Hoesen's Time To Express, eventually releasing their first full-length, Geotope, on that label last year. Marking a step back from Hoesen's more floor-oriented techno work, we characterized that album as "loaded with digital clicks, extreme frequencies and washes of drone." The new one, A Smaller Divide, will come out on Archives Intérieures, which the duo launched earlier this fall with a solo EP from De Mey. A Smaller Divide was written over six months of remote collaboration, with a few in-person live jam sessions thrown as well. The LP is said to expand on the sound of Geotope while keeping its core tenets, which suggests it'll be heavy on freeform experimentation. Tracklist 01. Capstan 02. Anti-Jupiter 03.
