Seems like most times ppl don't like my opions
on new releases, to critical (read:negitive). but
i'll give my 3 weeks after listening to it review/
summary..
ok, first off, this is by far his (aphex's) least innovative
release since 'i care..' and no this does'nt have to make it
a bad release, just a bit of a let down.
60% beat tracks
30% piano tracks (prepared and non also)
10% strange found sound/sound pieces,
organ and harmonium bits.
while the prepared bits are nice to listen to the others
(straight piano) i just find boring (i like feldman myself)
and both tend to break the flow of the album
(my biggest complaint)
as they tend to be inbetween every beat track..
sorta like my parenthasies=)
the beat tracks are (as a rule) are frantic squarepusher esq'
with some new percussion sounds i hav'nt heard from
him (afx) before and some (love it!) 808 kit amonst others.
but nothing even close to being as colorfull as the rdj lp
(a pinacle in his career imo). switch kit hits ala' max tundra in
some parts too.
orban eq trx4 and
bbydhyonchord are my faves by far..
gwarek2 is quite creepy and in the
vein of perc#6 minus the bongos.
call me scent-a-mental,
the piano fucking kills it.
gakfunk!
