" Haunting lullabies for sleepytime daydreamers and 4 a.m. riverwalkers"

"an arresting collection of electronica & Indie music." -


BEATFACTOR

 “You should be surprised what these guys can do with sounds, how they compose extraordinary melodic lines, twisted and melancholic beats, wise rhythms and most of all, intelligent music.”



TEXTURA MAGAZINE
Collapsing Culture
: twenty thoroughly sorted exercises in electronic boom-bap by five Texas-based Exponential artists…the listening experience strengthened by the seamless flow between the cuts…and the artists' dedication to detail and elegant craftsmanship. Though typically only three to four minutes long, the tracks are treated like mini-symphonies in numerous cases.”

TRIPHOP.HU
“The album first catches with its exceptional covert art, which kind of shows what you will find inside: a rare mixture of urban and ethnic, a patchwork of modified and effected sounds and samples. The fully electronic album is very experimental: no sample was safe from cutting, re-arranging and effecting - you have to take some time to accommodate to the musical way of thinking, but it won't be hard, as Collapsing Culture is very catchy.”

 

POPMATTERS

“Their new label compilation, Collapsing Culture, showcases the work of five San Antonio electronic/trip-hop artists and proves the city surprisingly apt… Exponential's aural paintings are impressionistic little abstracts, solid colors and shapes and random boxes that subtly reveal their hidden layers.”

 

 

 

IGLOO MAGAZINE

Collapsing Culture “is a good showcase for new electronic artists who don’t hail from the supposed cultural hubs of the States. Theory of Everything is an artist to definitely keep an eye on, as is Ęther216. The CD, with its stunning artwork, is a sample of what is out there, away from the bright lights and masses; it shows the potential of small labels from unknown areas.”
