Background/Info:
Planet
Supreme is a new project set up by Swedish musician Karl Ture Rydby (known from
Grand Mal X). The main goal of this project is an exploration of
‘analogue synths, selected synthesis and field recordings to create a deep dark
space with cosmic overtones, experimental nuances and warm spirit’.

The
analogue sound treatments are directly noticeable through the typical sweeping
sounds and effects, but also in the impressive blasting sounds running through
the work. The field recordings are quite noticeable elements as well. The
cinematographic side of the work creates a dark sphere, which is sometimes
joined by ritual-like sound treatments.

“Planet Supreme” sounds like the demo from a massive sound laboratory.
The analogue sound treatments inject a part of magic, but the field recordings
and noise manipulations are worthy of examination. This work is much more
fascinating than a classical soundscape. There’s a real cool diversity of
sounds and noises while some passages are pretty visual-like as well.

I have to admit some passages are a bit too experimental to my personal
taste, but the variety of influences makes it all accessible.
Conclusion:
Karl
Ture Rydby is a man of many talents and a real creative mind. I personally
prefer his work under the Grand Mal X moniker, but I’m sure Planet Supreme will
catch attention as well.
