Very interesting expermimental sample-art mixing found sounds, sampled interviews, and jazz, trip-hop and electro, some sounding like a very advanced Portishead, others obtuse noise. Great stuff.
1) very brief commentary about crap music, nice
2) downtempo a bit electro, with samples from the Who, Billy Holiday/Sarah Vaughan type female vocs, over non-stop guitar arpeggios, dark noisey and creepy strange
3) starts with a voice sample, becomes a brief marching piece
4) proggy jazz sample/feel with dark looping swirling bass, brief
5) repeat of #1
6) dark tones start, then total Trip Hop feel a la Portishead but way more interesting, cool
7) long track: the Portishead trip hop flavor continues in a big way, with a Bjork sample, but then it quickly devolves to obscure spacey experimentalism, then back again where it treats the trip hop to point of unrecognizability then just experimental noise
