For their third album, and first release on Bead, light.box expands from the duo of Alex Bonney (trumpet, electronics) and Pierre Alexandre Tremblay (bass guitar, electronics) to a trio adding the highly inventive Norwegian improv drummer Emil Karlsen. The music moves into ever more sonically expansive territory: dark ambient drone with fractured grooves meets gestural improv, gritty noise corrupts epic electronica.
