While inexplicibly has two recent releases: "Even" and "Haze". (demonstrating a thirwell-esque penchant for 4-letter titles) The former is a CD/2xLP which has the same tracks on both, the latter is on CD and 2 12"ches, with tracks exclusive to both. But don't worry - "Haze" is cheap enough so that even if you get the CD and 2 12"ches you won't be set back too much. Both are the same sort of release you've come to expect from While.. he gets a little more creative with sampling methods, but for the most part he doesn't stray too far: same "disconcerting" melodies, (actually a relief from the happy childlike IDM routine melodic progression) slow, strange progression, and slow funky beats. I am just wondering why he's flooding the market all of a sudden.. I enjoy While but I'm sure I don't need much more if he doesn't start mixing it up a bit. He's really becoming the Mick Harris of IDM, no?
