Working Up the Air

Half A Map is fascinated by rhythms outside 4/4. Listeners sharing their allure may seek to figure them out, but everyone can let the pulse and syncopation move their head, hips and feet. Techno, IDM, both? Does it matter? Air gets worked up whichever way. With BPMs from 104 to 130, there’s room for nodding with eyes closed and keeping on your toes up off the floor. Half A Map strives to combine catchiness with surprise, and roughness with gentleness. They relish sampling various objects and weaving them into their sound. Four originals plus a cherry on top with an Empath remix.
