I'm a little bit late on it but hope you allow me to
put my cents in the thread as I'm the long stading fan
of theirs.
I have absolutely all their CDs and would like to note
that from my point of view their musical progress can
be divided into the following parts:
1. Early years of melody driven
electronica:(Incunabula, Amber, Basscadet, Anti) with
glimps of what to expect in their next phase to be
heard on brilliant Amber album.
2. Harsh industrial electronica with that alien
feeling behind: (Tri Repetae, Garbage, Anvil Vapre,
Peel Session #1, Gescom's Keynell, Envane, Chiastic
Slide) best of them imho.
2.5 A perfect mix of old industrial sounds with their
future sounds of eccentric electronic chaos like yet
mathematically calculated musical structures was shown
on the Chichli Suite.
3. Sounds of robots trying to understand what music
fro humans - the best description imho to name their
next phase of experimentations with sounds, melodies,
structures etc. (LP5, EP7, Peel Sessions 2, Confield)
Frankly speaking I'm more fond of their 2 phase which
went along lines of my imagination and perception of
alien music. Yet with Confield they finally justified
the way they've been pursuing and I'm again their best
fan. Maybe they stand together with Freeform on my top
but I'm not sure. 8)
