picked up the new release from not breathing yesterday. it is called
"itchy tingles" and is available through invisible records. really, the
cd sounds like it belongs on the label (except it sounds nothing like the
junk invisible has been putting out and is actually very good :).
the "not breathing" sound at this point still reminds me of what i expect
the autechre/coil collaboration might sound like (if it ever happens) --
except that if you have been following not breathing since the "visible"
days, the music still has that distinct sound.
my faves on the release are:
"wasp fury" - which samples dogstar communications (at first i thought
they just had the same singer -- but i guess it samples some early 7" from
the band.. which is interesting if you can find it). this one is an odd
little junglish tune.
"ascii princess" - this song just has so many fun sounds flying around
that i cannot resist it. pretty damn sick and fun.
"telstar" - a wonderful song that reminds me of soul oddity if they were
to write a patriotic song or some church choir song :) i recognize this.
the credits say joe meek, but while the name seems familiar, im drawing a
blank :) im sure its something pretty obvious that i should know though..
"silver dollar" - short and sweet noisey bit :) glad not breathing
included some of this stuff on the cd.
"lilac time" - a very dark and BEAUTIFUL ambient/soundscape piece that
slowly evolves into noise (on the more suble side). this is not breating
at its best IMO.
"stand by your man" - just because :)
in case anyone was curious,
chris.
