When I picked this up the store owner told me that is was a lot like
autechre. Usually when I am told this, I stay away. However, upon
first listen this was very different. It is definitely inspired by the AE
boys but Funckarma have taken it up another notch. This sounds like
what would have happened if AE was signed to Hymen (a sub-label of
Ant-Zen) instead of warp. The music on here is full of emotion,
mechanical, distorted and coming from a dark aesthic. There are very few
albums that get immediate repeat listens from (I.E. letting the CD player
loop). This is one of those albums. Now to track down those 12's.
