PRESS:
In 2022, attenuation circuit starts a new series of four-way split albums called THING. The aim is to provide a medium for exchange and presentation of a great variety of artists. As each artist spreads the copies to their network, listeners also get to know the other artists featured on the same disc. The title references the fact that the CDs are physical objects – things! – but also refers to the 'thing' or 'ding' in old Norse and other Germanic languages, which designates the place of a popular assembly or the assembly itself and thus alludes to the 'meeting-place' character of the albums on (or around) which the four artists and their audiences meet, if only virtually.

With the fourth issue of the THING series, attenuation circuit unites newcomers to the label roster – sound artist and poet Dardis from Northern Ireland and post-psychedelic guitar experimenter A.Maiah from Spain – with the French-based acts SRVTR and Internal Fusion, who were previously featured on the label. The four tracks of the album could be considered a study in how loops/rhythms can evolve into drones and the other way around. Whenever a 'beat' appears, however, it's not a programmed drum-machine sound, but always loops created from found sounds. This makes a compelling case for repetitive rhythms as a method for experimental music, or experimental hearing: if you hear a sound repeated often enough, sometimes it takes on an aspect that would remain unnoticed at first hearing.

TRESNA - A.Maiah:

(eng) For this particular project i used a contact mic and an unplugged solid body electric guitar to sample acoustic noises and then create a piece without any effects or post-processed intervention despite the sampling itself.

(eus) Proiektu honetarako elektrifikatu gabeko gitarra elektrikoa ta kontaktu mikro bat erabili ditut. Gitarraren gorputzatik ateratako soinuak sanpleatu ditut, inongo efekturik edo posprodukziorik gabe, pieza hau konposatzeko.
