Josef Woodard, AKA Culture Monster had this to say in today’s Los Angeles Times about last night’s show at the Royal/T in Culver City with Evidence and Vibration Institute Orchestra.
Their hour in the spotlight was more cerebral, an evocative canvas of sounds at once abstract in origin and tinged by hints of field recordings from the “real world” (the “evidential” aspect?). Melodic motifs and fuzzy groove elements emerged and receded in the mesmeric sonic fog, and the set conjured up the sense of a journey to whereabouts unknown, but not at all unpleasant. Ambient mission accomplished.
