I think 'Gravity' is pretty poor. Very cold, very icy, very boring. Every
track seems to be just slowly reworking loops, which can be done well, but
here is honestly so repetitive there's nothing to sustain interest. Nor is
there enough atmosphere to get lost in.
A release I picked up recently which made me think of Chain Reaction era
Porter Ricks is Radio. It's a Spanish duo, comprised of guys who release
stuff seperately as Silvania and Prozack. I ordered it blind cos I'm that
into Silvania's 'Naves Sin Puertos', which is more like maybe Seefeel or
someone. Prozack brings in the techno influences and it all swims rather
nicely. It reminded me of Porter Ricks for having that muted sound with
things sounding like they were crashing and bashing but very very far away.
Might be worth checking out...
