Your Imaginary Friend
Reviewed 2003-08-12
Some super bizarre experimental stuff that is very organic, lots of vocal loops, treated layers, trippy and psychedelic. Super strange, difficult. Not particularly noisey but certainly challenging. Did I say bizarre? Great stuff. Fact sheet lists Caroliner and Sun City Girls as brethren. Sort of a stretch but I can certainly see it, through an acid haze.

1) minimal start, loud middle, minimal end
2) pensive, grows bangier with strange vocalizations, hand claps in end
3) loops that build on themselves, almost frippertronics in form
4) vocal loops
5) chill pretty loops
6) really bizarre fucked up songlike, I can see the Caroliner analogy here
7) bizarre vocal loopings, drums, this is really interesting sick stuff
