As a follow-up to the debut EP on Taisha entitled Anaesthesia, Avilynn is back with another dynamic four track EP in the shape of 'Five Million Sunsets'. Once again showcasing Avilynn's diverse production style across three originals, while Techno titan Answer Code Request turns in an interpretation employing his typically twisted and intricate style. 'Why So Serious' opens the project and focuses on dynamically evolving and unfurling drums, plucked synths and modulating percussion while expansive reverberations and nuanced echoes further instil dynamism throughout. Answer Code Request steps up next, shifting the focus to an industrial feel aesthetically, twisting elements of the original's synthesis and high-octane drums into an ominous, subtly unfolding take on things. Opening the flip-side is title-cut 'Five Million Sunsets' which sees Avilynn explore a more textural landscape, dropping the tempo significantly and introducing circling dub chords, earthy sub tones and menacing bass swells throughout. Last up to round out the release is 'Your Eye Was Bigger Than The Other One', here Avilynn focuses her musical theme around "a trippy experience where the person has a distorted reality", the composition laid out across three and a half minutes melds together choppy broken drums, eerie tones and bubbling synths alongside gritty distorted moments and metallic chimes.
