EVOL is an experimental music project known for its unconventional approach to electronic music, often characterized by a focus on algorithmic composition, harsh textures, and a playful yet challenging dissection of dance music tropes. The entity behind EVOL is Roc Jiménez de Cisneros, who has been creating music under this name since the late '90s, along with his collaborator Stephen Sharp. EVOL's work is influenced by concepts from mathematics and computational theories, which is evident in the algorithmic nature of their compositions, blending a cerebral quality with elements of humor and the absurd.
As a fixture in the underground electronic scene, EVOL has amassed a cult following with a discography that embodies their unique artistic vision, which can be described as a form of "computer music for hooligans," a term they have playfully used to describe their approach. Their recent releases like "Melting Pinkness" and "Wabbit Trax" series exemplify the duo's continual evolution, delivering sounds that oscillate between the cerebral and the visceral. Other notable works such as "Proper Headshrinker" and "Fart Synthesis" showcase EVOL's ability to coax out mind-bending patterns from minimalist ingredients, resulting in a listening experience that is as intriguing as it is entertaining. The title "Magia Potagia" caps off their recent oeuvre with a nod to their ongoing exploration of the intersection between the magical and the mechanical in their sonic excursions.
