Mouse on Mars:Niun Niggnug
every time I listen to this I find something new. It took a long
time to grow on me but I think I'm currently seeing the genius.
V/A:Sonig comp
Read above. This comp is worth it just for the Vert track and FX
randomiz's opening barrage.
Ensemble: Sketch proposals.
This one I'm still trying to work into. I had super High hopes for
it. And well some tracks do sound like an incredible mix of Autechre and MBV
others sound bland and lifeless. I'm hoping that this type of stuff really
breaks though and we start to see a lot more 'glitch-pop' with vocals.
Makesnd:Cassette
This is as awesome as everyone says.
Lb: Pop artificiellle ... Geez N' Gosh: my life with jesus.
Reminded me of both why I love Uwe and also why I stopped buying all
of his releases. Each of theses CD's contains 2 or 3 beautifully sublime
tracks (LB's rendition of superbad is soulless its got soul.) but the rest
seems trite and repetitive. If Uwe released 1 or 2 records a year he would
easily be my favorite electronic artists of all time. As it is I need to
convince myself every now and then to pick up his new ones.

Get it you will not be disappointed. No beats just some incredible
built up rhythm and noise. My vote for album of the year.
Octant: Shock-No-par.
Octant is a local Seattle artist who builds machines that actually
play real drums, sorta robot like, which he controls with a drum machine.
The music has vocals, and catchy little one handed melodies and a lot of
noises, weird cool noises. And fuck its good. I haven't heard their newest
disk but this one has gone into my CD player at least once a week since I
got it.
Pixies: Surfer Rosa.
where is your mind?
