Billed as "experimental pop songs," these are abstract soundscapes made of cut-up and slowed-down tracks that probably started as parts of pop songs. (See the warped image of a cassette tape on the back cover - that's an idea of the sounds in here). Cool stuff -- playful and mysterious, even a bit ambient. 1- Swampy-slow groaning. More like "1/4" speed than 1/2 speed. Cool! 2- Slow and dark... almost a goth feel. Later, some friendly plinks. 3- Creeping and dark 4- Lots of backwards drums! Touches of gloopy voices. 5- Slow, a bit quiet. With groans and video-game sounds 6- A slow, evil march in the distance. Caution: Abrupt shift near the end 7- Resembles a "normal" ambient track in spots. Very nice. 8- Soothing synth chords and non-soothing growly sounds 9- Crunchy samples in rhythm 10- Voices, all slowed down and spooky | ||
