"Organizing the Evidence is the first release from Dutch duo Vance Orchestra in a rather
long time. They officially called it quits back in 2005, splitting into solo projects (ad)VANCE(d) and The Dear Listeners. Apparently, they reunited in 2018 to record this short, strange mini-album of roughly dissonant organ and synthesizer crawl with a seemingly live-in-one-go direct-to-tape atmosphere. The whole mess is smeared with in-the-red production overload that suggests an enervating instability, as if Evidence might veer out of the players control into chaotic noise at any moment. The Orchestra keeps their fried circuits reigned in for the most part, but they dont let up the pressure or implied threat of looming disaster. This EP might too grating and irritating to be ambience or even drone music, though those elements are evident in Vances DNA. If the group records more, Ill be curious to hear where they go from here." [Howard Stelzer / Vital Weekly]
