Fazo IV, Lowe's odd, introspective synth record from 2010, gives little hint of context or reference. It doesn't reveal Rob's background in rock bands, nor even his big city, art-world life. It has little to do with avant-composition or any academic structures, which makes sense since Rob has never worked in that world. Instead, it's a curious collection of pulses and tones that take shape into an evolving concept. It's mastered quietly, and it sounds a bit less murky than comparable 70s or 80s private press synth rumblings. The color insert is particularly nice.
