LA-based multimedia artist Suzy Poling is putting a busy foot forward this fall with her longtime Pod Blotz project, firmly embracing its roots in degrees of evocative, monochromatic gray noise with a reissue of her spring Human Division cassette for Nostilevo and a new tape, Other, on Barcelona’s similarly tempered Cønjuntø Vacíø imprint — older Pod Blotz releases have been released via Chocolate Monk, Clan Destine, DNT Records, and many many more. Compared to Human Division, Other has a much different sense of scope and production. Other seems to truly inhabit the listener. It’s industrial noise with an intensity and texture reminiscent of newer names like Dreamcrusher or Macho Blush, though it could be said to operate in a much more modest framework, with slagged loops and an interesting tone palette making its extremes both more somber and meditative than either project.
