I'll do a bit of a review as this one is well up my alley. Still very fresh but I'll go on a limb and say one of my personal great electronic releases. This is why I started liking electronic music. Usually I don't even really like AE in these more recent years at least. too random clustro casual - Nice opener. A little like old school AE here. Church music splesh - a little more like new school AE. Kind of Spookyish gonging but maybe a lot weirder. just keeps going somewhere. Weird clanging synth lines in there tt1pd - "Fuckin 'ell! Fuckin 'ell! That's something else, innit? It's like two songs" Well it is 22 min long. The first song is really my kind of AE. Cue ball on slate staccato on again off again beat, crazy bass and bassy synths for 10 minutes. Worth the price of admission. Second song is like same thing but way slower and more insane acid mwan idle - gongs didgeridoo and cicadas. Almost like a crescendo. yeah it is actually fLh - like Electric Company on a happy day but the batteries in the tape deck are dying. Marching music for demented clown robots glos ceramic - just insane. I won't even try to describe it. I'll say I'd like to hear it on acid (not really likely at this age lol. maybe I'll try to get my kid to get me some). I would also say it's pretty dark g 1 e 1 - trippy aphexesque thing icari - dark slow. gets well into weird territory around 6:30. Then weirder about 9:00. I want to dance to it like some kind of freak after 10:00. I don't care if this is 20:00 long, I'm still listening to see what's going to come next. Something pretty strange actually. Maybe like Coil. So was the last ambient track shimriplair a bit actually, the drone stuff. And a raucous conclusion to this album-ending track I dunno maybe I just need to listen to more Autechre.
