Here is what I got on it:
Shad T. Scott EP ISOPHLUX (techno/triphop)
Coming out of South Florida is S.T.S....Isophlux is his new
label, starting with the first release being a 5-track EP of pure Aphex
styled tracks. The first track called "Sand Pail" having a Warp-esque
styled sound with stellar emotional string arrangements and electronic
beats. The second track called "Orlando Feel" being a total Aphex Twin
styled tune with weird sound sequencing backed up by string patterns.
Flipside, track "Seven" that is just pure random acid notes being tweaked
with resonance! "Phluphation" is a very dark metallic percussive song
that sinks deep into your mind. Lastly, "Isophlux vs. Edward Bobb" is an
ambient journey into spaced out minimalism, ending onto a locked groove.
Sounds delish, huh? Dave at EAR/R is currently trying to find me
as copy. I cannot wait.
