Floex – Com
Wednesday, March 17th, 2010Not only do I think this track is wonderful and unique – one of my all-time favourite ambient-electronic tracks – but the composer, a Czech named Tomas Dvorak (a.k.a. Floex) is also a musician and graphic artist. My kind of awesome.

A charged build-up set against a steady drone releases into a free-floating and energetic melody. Then the breakbeat comes in, followed by a changing chordal landscape and climbing melody that takes you on a trip. It’s clean, other-worldy, emotive, and refreshing.
Off his album Pocustone. Other tracks from the album are also extremely sweet and worth checking out, like Phi_Log (somewhat reminds me of Bonobo’s work, dark, rich, and oh so smooth) and Pointilice.
It’s great to see that Floex actually gets some solid google hits now. I’ve known this track for years, happily stumbled upon from a somafm.com streamrip, but even just last year, you could barely find this track or anything about the artist online.
