It's amazing the things I manage to find at discount stores like Media
Play. Went there last night, and picked up Air Liquide's "Increased
Difficulty of Concentration", and Single Cell Orchestra's "Dead Vent 7".
I've got SCO on right now, and my immediate impression is how striking the
resemblance is to The Conversation by Cabaret Voltaire. I love the
underlying theme of the album as one continuous story, progressing through
some very well constructed atmospheres. This release has more of an ambient
feel to it, and it is captivating me at this very moment! =|-)
I put on the Air Liquide last night around 1:30am, with a very dim light,
and it set the _perfect_ mood for just sitting and meditating. I was also
quite pleased to be able to pick up both of these releases for $12.99 each.
Finally, I get some great music, at a decent price!
Also got the M & R, Das Ist by Slaz, Justin Robertson JDJ, 808 State Bond
single, newest Orb peelie (q about that below), and new Electronic album...
I know, not really IDM content, but Bernard Sumner has always had a
peculiar outlook on life, and it shows through on the CD insert.
About the newest Orb Peel sessions... what in the *$!% is that second track
doing there!?!?! AFAIK, it's got _nothing_ to do with the Orb. I'm
assuming Peel threw that one in there to piss us all off... did a right
good job at that on me. :)
