Mellow, yet challenging noisy electronic music. The music is not all electronic since some instruments are sampled. Thumbtack is the most experimental of the local Quaketrap crew (Yoko Solo, Shaggy Manatee, HELIUM 3). If you like the stuff that comes out on Warp Records, check this out. Recommended.
1) real drums, electronic beeps, bass, effects >> breaks down into beatless mush and comes back (5:42)
2) sounds drizzle and bounce from ear to ear. More substantial synths fill out the sound.
3) beatbased, industrial synths and noise.
4) slippery sounds. and fuzz. Mellow and slow.
5) crunchy, pounding beats w/ no steady bpm. Breaks into crystalline sounds at end.
((6)) cool rubber beat, effect ridden melody and some quiet vocals.
((7)) lagging beats, sliding synths. Generally disorienting.
((8)) keyboard melody covered by slipping and sliding. Distorted beats. Some vocals come in later
9) buzzing, crunching and crystalline synths
(((10))) slow melody augmented with soaring sounds, distorted noise, low voices.
