i got the mouse on mars cd the same day as i got the pluxus cd. in the
nearly two weeks since, pluxus listens: 2 (and i've yet to make it all
the way through. a snoozer and not in a warm nap kind of way), mouse on
mars listens: i've lost count. i don't generally play albums to death,
but this is one of the first full lengths in a while that i've throughly
enjoyed. i think i tell everyone i come across about it.
music wise, i find it other step in mom wonderful development. i pulled
out vuvlaland the other day and while i still like it, they are lightyears
beyond that. dsp hackery to be sure, but in a wonderful warm and playful
way. i see this record be very successful crossing bountries. it is
fucked up and twisted, but yet accessible and fun.
while picking one album for 'pick of the year' is ussually a fruitless
endevour of comprises, if i had to recommend one cd to a total stranger,
this would be it.
