2002-09-30 :: Polmo Polpo :: The Science of Breath (Substractif/Alien8
Recordings)
"...Polmo Polvo (Sandro Perri) has created a brilliant, yet densely
thick conceptual work that fills the room with deep rhythm..."
2002-09-29 :: Languis :: Untied (Simballrec)
"...This disc has a few faint vocals, billowing, almost unreadable, amid
a mostly instrumental disc..."
2002-09-27 :: Squarepusher :: Do You Know Squarepusher? (Warp)
"...This is by far the most colorful example from the catalogue of
Squarepusher (Tom Jenkinson) thusfar, in terms of encrusting pop idioms
with an otherwise offbeat, left-of-center IDM sensibility. In its fractured
theme Do You Know Squarepusher a living/breathing rouse marries these
electro-twidlers to lapsed "Hey, Hey We're The Monkees" fare..."
2002-09-27 :: Smyglyssna :: We Can Fix It (Vertical Form)
"...Though there are certain moments where I am raring to groove a bit,
the edge never tips squarely enough towards the more funkier side to stick
with it..."
2002-09-17 :: Digitonal :: 23:Things Fall Apart (Toytronic)
Two words accurately describe the (overall) feeling of this debut release
for Digitonal on the UK-based Toytronic Record label.. Elegant Electronics.
Imagine Aphex Twins "I Care Because You Do" tied to recent emotional
electronic based artists such as Esem, Abfahrt Hinwil, and Sense and you
have a pretty good idea of the path that this full-length takes you through.

Horch, Erstwhile, and others! Check out what's new in the world of abstract

2002-09-12 :: Benge :: Meme Tunes (Expanding Records)
"...Seemingly using the sounds of a department store with a signature beat
and minimal vinyl degradation Edwards cautiously arranges each piece like an
individually wrapped chocolate..."
2002-09-08 :: Sybarite :: Nonument (4AD)
"...They all have taken the logical step from purely sequenced and
automated electronic music toward a much more organic process of using
acoustic instrumentation and more traditional song writing methods. Xian
himself is quite the multi-instrumentalist, dabbling in guitar, trumpet amongst
other instruments..."
2002-09-02 :: Dabrye :: Instrmntl (Eastern Developments)
"... The results (of Dabrye) are a bunch of warm, accessible grooves, but
still with truckloads of interest to make for worthwhile headphone
listening..."
2002-09-02 :: Hu Vibrational :: Boonghee Music 1 (Eastern Developments)
"...Slowly shifting rhythms based on repeating grooves, soft drones, deep bass
tones, building layers of sound..."
