O my god.
If you're expecting Phoenecia to sound like Phoenecia anymore, think
somewhere else! They've COMPLETELY and ENTIRELY reinvented themselves on
Brownout. Hardly any low end at all, nothing "beaty" about it. Very minimal
and clicky. VERY slow tempoes the whole way through. Reminds me of the early
Silksaw stuff without any of the beats. Even though I'm not so familiar with
their stuff, isn't Sutekh or Kit Clayton like this? Delarosa and Asora
maybe? Definitely headphone/chin stroking stuff. Similar to their track on
the Voices in My Lunchbox compilation without the vocals. Kinda too bad,
'cause it has been on more than one occasion where I've shaken my booty to
some of their other releases.
It's not a bad album, and I guess I give them credit for this complete 180
they've taken, I just had such high hopes after Odd Jobs and all of its
grindy aggitated beats.
