Faustine Cruz - HNW SERIES VXVI

Review by Penny Reynolds

HNW SERIES VXVI by Faustine Cruz is an album that is sure to leave a lasting impression on any listener. The album is a masterful blend of noise and experimental music that is both haunting and mesmerizing. From the opening track, "HNW SERIES VXVI," to the closing track, "Emptiness," the album takes the listener on a journey through a world of sound that is both beautiful and terrifying.

The album is characterized by its use of harsh, abrasive noise that is layered with subtle melodies and intricate rhythms. The tracks are often lengthy, with some clocking in at over 20 minutes, but they never become tiresome or repetitive. Instead, the music is constantly evolving, with new sounds and textures being introduced throughout each track.

One standout track on the album is "The Abyss," which features a haunting vocal sample that is manipulated and distorted to create an eerie, otherworldly atmosphere. Another standout track is "Static," which uses a repeated static noise to create a sense of tension and unease.

Faustine Cruz has created a masterpiece of experimental music that is sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone who hears it.
