I haven't got Kulma, but I just picked up the Vakio-Sampler last week, and
it's pretty cool.. here's a review or something.. :d
I tried to find out which side is side a, well I found a B on one of the
sides, so I just assumed the other is a, it's so hard to tell which such a
transparent vinyl.
I know this is just the first 10" from the 4x10" limited transparent Vakio
album (which also is available on a regular LP) but for those ppl who don't
have it:
*Alku*: This track consists of one long beep whose filter cutoff starts
modulating in about the halfway point of the track and the modulation speeds
up and speeds up until the end of the track. This track really must be a
joke. I thought personally it might be good as something to start out with
in some set or something, but I reckon I'll never listen to it to just
listen to it :)
*Radiokemia*: this track is really nice, has a slow beat, so at first I
thought it was supposed be played at 45, but the other tracks don't sound
right at 45. there isn't much to say about the tracks themselves since they
are superminimalistic, this one has a couple analogue sounds in it, very
repetative and minimalistic.
*Hetken*: another beep track, this is better than the first one though, at
least it has some more variance that would allow you to take the track a bit
more seriously, it has noise interludes and at least when the beep comes
back it's at a different pitch.
*Vaihe*: This track is my favorite of all the tracks on here. it's a steady
4/4 beat with a strange anologue "rising" tone that repeats throughout the
most of the track, and has some other sound like swinging clubs or something
(I really can't describe it) repeating throughout.
