Reviewed 2004-03-02
-was expecting cut-ups & more laptop pops/noise. this is more mainstream, somewhat glitchy, mostly instrumentals, beats heavy and meandering. nice experimant overall.

1. intro track, some sound effects and funky breaks
2.fast breakbeat, low-key
3.tropical ease gets bent, turns to glitchy fun
4.vocal track, m+f, sounds like they're having fun
5.harp intro, Esquivel made modern.
6.minimal, just skipping and stretched bits
7.vaguly 70's tv soundtrack heavily processed, glitch galore
8.fassst vocal scratches, crazy short track
9.mid. vocals (Japanese?) thru pitch bender
10.one minute audio joke "hello" with music examples
11.vibraphone, trip-glitch, vocals on key, strong track
12.odd beat strangely alluring. vaguely latin. good vocals too.
13.semi-pastoral, semi-construction
14.a music exercise? slow start, faux gamelan bridge, drum improv
15.mid. nice noises in the middle. consistent.
16.noise intro, repeating guitar sample, high-pitched noises at end
17.elements thrown together over a simple beat. weak track to end cd with.
