Cool collection of abstract beats. Who are these Children of Mu? British release.
1. Chopped distant choir. The beat is the rhythm of the chop, neat, minimal
2.Applause and guitar intro, then rap over fast electro
3.off-kilter warbly synth, granulated beats, instrumental
4.fast paced, like a car chase, bassy instrumental
5.heavily distorted vocal intro, then breakbeat gabber
6.trippy bells, for the modern LSD carousel. 2nd half is more normal beats.
7.danceable beat, distorted notes, incomprehensibly chopped rap sample
8.menacing low tone, then videogame music
9.straight ahead blippy beats
10.quiet intro, guy singing w/techno beats- like a Depeche Mode remix
11.industrial techno madness. Keeps changing.
12.laid back, clear guitar
13.Acoustic guitar and harmonica intro, human drums, slow indie-rock
disc 2:
1.very nice ambient loop, simple catchy drum and more layers build
2.yelled male samples & fast rap, aggressive beat
3.super fast breakbeat, sounds like they sped it up
4.quiet intro, fast, a little slinky
5.buzzy slow, made from video game sounds
6.chill with vocals that get mixed in bit by bit
7.chiller, dub
8.random noise intro, mid-fast with random noise bursts
9.flanged solo guitar with shimmers
10.appealing alien melody, speeds up subtly
11.fast, repetitive first half then breakbeat
12.quiet bowl ringing, then pandemonium
13.piano glitch post-rock
