| | Description: | Over two decades, Terence Fixmer has mapped his singular sound across a sizable stack of singles, EPs and seven grit-smeared solo albums intended to make you sweat. For his first album on Mute, the space inspired â??Shifting Signalsâ??, he deals out a fistful of club-minded, pitch black ragers while expanding his sound palette to convey a wider spectrum of moods.
Lead single â??Corne de Brumeâ?? is the albumâ??s guiding star and hard-hitting statement piece; a six-minute tempest of sawtoothed synths designed to evoke a shipâ??s foghorn, setting a moody and uncompromising tone with ear-piercing synthwork that slices through the foggy noise. â??I was imagining a boat sailing off somewhere into the distanceâ?, says Fixmer. Throughout â??Shifting Signalsâ??, the follow up to 2018â??s album â??Through the Cortexâ??, he fixes his gaze on a vivid sci-fi world where deep space stretches out infinitely. â??Shifting Signalsâ?? was sparked by a formative childhood viewing of Ridley Scottâ??s 1979 sci-fi horror classic â??Alienâ??. â??I was totally traumatised but at the same time fascinated by it,â? he recalls. â??I kept thinking about the images from the film while I was making this albumâ?.
â??Shifting Signalsâ?? swoops, dips and scales the heights of white-knuckle adventure, and throughout the album concepts of unknowable space extend to the vast and mysterious natural world in our more immediate orbit. On tracks such as â??Corne de Brumeâ?? and â??Step to the Edgeâ?? Fixmer captures more tangible elements â?? the sea, earth â?? but always with an eye on their wild and uncontrollable side. On â??Step to the edgeâ??, Fixmer reverts to techno fervour noddding to his floor-shaking club repertoire. Similarly, â??No Latitude for Errorsâ?? plots the brawny coordinates of EBM via an onslaught of jabbing synths and furious beats. Along with hypnotic stomper â??The Way I See Youâ??, these tracks feel noticeably rooted in the trailblazing â??techno body musicâ?? heâ??s known by many for. But itâ??s not all fire, brimstone and banging techno. â??The Passageâ?? slowly builds tension through layers of droning, noise that surges powerfully, like a jet engine.
Meanwhile, the clear-eyed piano and B-movie synths on â??Synthetic Mindâ?? bring a cinematic element to the album that ambient closing track â??Deserticâ?? brings into focus. â??I wanted give people a direct movie image in their head when they listen to it,â? says Fixmer. - Issued in a gatefold sleeve
The tracklisting appears to be out of order on the sleeve. On the sleeve, the tracks are listed as follows:
1. Reset
2. Corne de Brume
3. Automaton
4. Step to the Edge
5. Roar Machines
6. The Passage
7. No Latitude for Errors

The tracks as listed are how they appear on all digital formats, and this appears to be correct, based on the release of individual tracks as singles.
