Neuro... No Neuro - Scans
Scans is a masterpiece in exactly disconnected electronic music.
In Kirk’s words … “Starting from the very first track, Scan One is actually the composition that brought this album’s theme to fruition. In the beginning of the year 2011, I had agreed to get an MRI scan to check for a brain tumor that had been removed twice before (recurrent atypical meningioma). The tumor had returned and plans for a third brain surgery were set into motion. Each of these tracks portrays a particular mental or emotional state throughout the process. From the delivery of the news through the results of the craniotomy; from the radiation treatment’s side effects to the overall issues that arose from this procedure (mild loss of speech/memory, behavioral changes, and simple-partial epileptic seizures with various aura types).
Living from one moment to the next, the recovery from this series of events to feeling something close to “normal” has placed the production of this album at the forefront of my mind for several years. To be able to finally produce the sounds and feelings that I’ve wanted to convey as accurately as I can has been a pure joy."

Love the drum sounds and many of the other sounds are quite relaxing to me.
The first track seems to lose focus in places and I think some of the instrumental sounds could have taken a touch more compression for balancing amplitude and corrective EQ to attenuate resonance a little more.
The second track seems to wash over the listener without anything technically negative standing out.
Whilst I don't have time to listen to the whole album right now, I think I might well return to this. I really like the sound palette. Interesting work.
