Genre/Influences: Minimal-Electro, Experimental.

Format: Digital, Cassette.

Background/Info: Ujif_Notfound is an Ukrainian solo-project directed by Georgiy Potopalskiy. He explains his work as ‘the creation of multimedia systems based on the algorithm of the kinetic relationship between man and the program.’

Content: The opening track sounds totally Experimental and not really representative for what’s coming next. Ujif_Notfound is mainly dealing with Minimal-Electronic sounds which are reinforced by Industrial sound treatments. There’s a slow cadence running through the work. You’ll also notice film samplings.

+ + + : The debut tracks is a bit misleading as the essence of this work is based upon retro-like Electronics. I like this minimalism, reminding me of the glorious 80s experiments in electronics. The rhythm makes it all more accessible which even comes to create a kind of Industrial-Dub -especially at the last track.

– – – : Just forget the debut cut and you’ll discover a fascinating Electro experiment.

Conclusion: The album has been composed during the war in Ukraine which makes me say creativity and arts generally speaking remain a true therapy to endure even when a country is in a state of terror and horror. Respect!

Best songs: “Urnext”, “Trembeat”, “Rostrum”, “Pieta”.

Rate: 8.

Inferno Sound Diaries
I have been working for over 30 years with Side-line as the main reviewer. My taste is eclectic, uncoventional and I prefer to look for the pearls, even if the bands are completely unknown, thus staying loyal to the Side-Line philosophy of nurturing new talents.

Since you’re here …

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
