Sunshine Reviewed 2012-01-11 | ||
LEB LAZE: "Music For Troubled Machinery" -- Interesting assortment of electronic beats and effects. Mostly instrumentals. Many moods represented. Written, played and recorded by Ryan "Raj" Rasheed. Faves: 1, 9, 13, 14, 10, 11, 2, 6, 16. -- Sunshine, January 2012 ***** 1) Simple Systems Mantra -- Kewl rhythms and percussion. Bamboo flute?! Grooves! Instrumental. (2:32) **** 2) Complex Rising -- Heavy, deep, rollicking groove. Swirly; orchestral. Instrumental. (2:01) *** 3) Keep Rising -- Heartbeat drums. Then, almost Taiko sound. Short instrumental. (0:36) *** 4) Voltage Power Barrio -- Swirly. Robot-like voices. Galloping clip-clop rhythm. Airplane takeoff. Very short. (1:05) ** 5) Hushhhhhhh Maing -- Starts with word "Five". Then, Middle-Eastern feeling. Psychedelic dreamy. (2:04) **** 6) Duck Duck Flow -- Interesting electronic beats. Instrumental. (1:34) **** 7) Static Radiates (Underwater Meditation) -- Swirly. Bamboo flute. Irregular beats. Spacey. Instrumental. (2:25) *** 8) We Found Answers -- Subtle Hendrix-esque guitar riff opening. Dreamy headscape. Weird blips. Bowed upright bass and/or cello. Instrumental. (3:02) ***** 9) In Love (Vocoded Freak Testimonials) -- "Nine, nine, nine." Then into a Bassnectar-like groove. Subliminal vox. (3:11) ***** 10) This Means To Clarify -- Climbing rhythms. Sounds like whip in the background. Horns. Strings. Really cool instrumental. (3"08) **** 11) Nature Meets Static -- Ocean waves. Bird-like sounds. Robotic vox, sort of like Lurch, or frogs! Funny! Then, a sort of funky groove. Squeaky door or motorcycle noise. . . . Very bizarre, but I like it. (4:02) *** 12) Swerve Transmissions -- "Twelve." Marching beat with string-ish synthy accompaniment. (0:54) ***** 13) Toxic Knock (A) -- Cool beatz. Spacey parts. Instrumental. (2:11) ***** 14) Toxic Knock (B) -- "Fourteen." Essentially, a continuation of #13. Odd synths at end. (2:10) *** 15) Revelations . . . -- Symphonic start . . . Spacey synths. Subliminal froggy sounds. (1:41) **** 16) Uncaged -- "Sixteen." Weird background voices. Clompy groove. Strings. Piano. Essentially instrumental. (4:28) ** 17) Dial In / Dial Out -- Thunderstorm with scratches. Blippy. Extremely short. (0:38) |
