Diskont 94: This was the first thing I bought by Oval and it so happens that I
bought it from Ambient Soho in Berwick St. I was slightly disappointed with
this album because it is not very long (45 mins) and the first track is over 20
minutes long, and a shortened version is also included. The style of this track
(Do while) is quite nice with a strong ambient feel but I wish it did not take
up
so much of the album. The remaining tracks I like much more. They are much
more like Systemisch.
Systemisch: My other Oval album (thank you Fat Cat). This I feel is more
complete than Diskont as it is longer and has reasonable track lengths. But the
tracks! Fucked up is one way to describe them since it sounds like they have
been deliberately engineered so that they sound like they have not been
engineered.
I love the music to death but I have never heard anything so speaker-unfriendly.
Some of
the tones make my Kef Coda 8s sound like their are crying out in pain!
Berwick St.:It's off Oxford St. near Oxford Circus
