FRKWYS Vol. 13: Sunergy

Released

First released in 2016 as part of a regular series of artist collaborations on the RVNG label and then reissued with an extra digital track added on vinyl in 2023, Sunergy is the best kind of supersession, with avant garde electronic legend Ciani and then up and coming synth experimenter Smith putting their forms of life into the machines. Exploring slow pulsing trances, bubbling tones and crashing waves, “A New Day” starts Sunergy on a grand note, while the slightly moodier “Closed Circuits” and psych-tinged “Retrograde” further play out the fusion.
