TRjj mastermind Max Stocklosa emerges again under a new mystifyingly cryptic moniker with Inner Cop Avoidance, joined this time out by Sebastian von der Heide from the German improv outfit Nasssau amd and like-minded Danish artists, Kristian Poulsen and Mathias Sæderup. I'll not pretend to already know of the other work of Stocklosa's collaborators here, though their free-ranging approach to composition does seem to provide a perfect foil to the crooked, hallucinatory electronics we've long associated with TRjj/TRJJ/Trii Group et al. In fact, Inner Cop Avoidance extends very naturally from the TRii Musik universe, seamless, circling half-world sounds that feel unrooted and upended, ungraspable like dream memories. That it was recorded in various locations over time in both Germany and Denmark only adds to its unmoored tendencies. Stocklosa's pre-existing work is a good as reference for what's going on here as anything else, so singular is the sound world he's long been building (and one that von der Heide, Poulsen and Sæderup seem well in tune with), but if you're in need of further coordinates then some kind of imagined cross pollination of Jon Hassell, Henry Flynt and Richard Maxfield might lead you towards an understanding of sorts.
