Track 1 has a subliminally skankin' rhythm with muted
clicks and pops. The tone's slightly darker and more
lo-fi than is typical for Pole tracks. The Pole
signifiers are here, but it's certainly not as well-produced
as the real Pole.
Track 2 is in the vein of ambient Pole, but
is sparser sounding, and not as rich and detailed sonically;
it's as if the producer(s) forgot some
crucial colors from his/her/their palette.
These tracks are by no means Weird Al parodies,
but instead pale imitations with perhaps some
subtle mocking qualities that only those who
really know Pole would notice.
No, I'm not going to sell my copy.
