The "Manipulated" ep offers four concise, driving electronic tracks from Third Realm. This 2011 release predates the artist's more ambient-focused work.
- "Manipulated" was self-released digitally in February 2011. The ep features four tracks, with a total runtime of approximately 25 minutes. Third Realm would go on to release "The Gate" the following year.
- The project's sound on this ep is characterized by prominent electronic percussion and atmospheric synth pads. Tracks like "Manipulated" and "Underlying" showcase a rhythmic, yet spacious, approach to ambient music.
- This release sits stylistically between the project's earlier industrial leanings and its later, more ethereal electronic works. It demonstrates Third Realm's early command of textured electronic composition.
Third Realm is the electronic music project of Los Angeles-based artist Nathan V. Larson. The project is known for its ambient, industrial, and neoclassical soundscapes.
