{"product_id":"johannes-volk-shining-force","title":"Johannes Volk - Shining Force","description":"\u003cp\u003eThird time’s a charm, or possibly an anomaly. Johannes Volk returns to Running Back for another five exercises in perception, memory and dance-floor physics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing Extra Dimensions and Lightweave, this third instalment finds Volk continuing his particular way of making machine music feel strangely human and vice versa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShining Force starts somewhere above ground. Gliding across an unfamiliar planetary surface, optical illusions and physical anomalies slowly interfere with the senses. Unknown landscapes, peculiar vegetation, nature behaving unnaturally: techno as field research. Switching From Bicycle to Spaceship does exactly what it says on the tin, more or less: trading pedal power for propulsion as a deceptively simple groove gathers speed, sheds gravity and quietly leaves the atmosphere behind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHidden In Dark belongs to a more immediate kind of archaeology: fog, strobes, bodies and those inexplicably intense emotions that only seem to exist on a dance floor at the right (or wrong) hour. Back Alley Dancers turns the telescope around and looks backwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVocal fragments, pitched, delayed, reversed and removed from their original meaning trigger half-memories of youth, and of encountering music and culture before you quite understood what any of it meant. Familiar feelings in unfamiliar shapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, Drumatury dispenses with introspection and gets down to elementary forces. Morphing bass drums meet a Chicago jacking snareroll massacre. Drama becomes drumaturgy. Or the other way around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFive tracks, several states of consciousness, one Johannes Volk. No protective equipment supplied.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Running Back","offers":[{"title":"12 Inch Vinyl","offer_id":60034436202841,"sku":"SDZ-54968","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/3455\/0945\/files\/SRD_20261012_1510_143157_497_p_RB148_019.jpg?v=1792490629","url":"https:\/\/spindizzyrecords.com\/products\/johannes-volk-shining-force","provider":"Spindizzy Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
