Reviews & Discussion
IDM, Black Dog-style, with Detroit synth sweeps and rhythms that eschew the traditional 4-to-the-floor: this is Dimension 5’s ALIEN ARTFORM. Some beautiful grooves on here (like the robots-in-love tones of “Automation” or the across-the-wires glide of “Network”). “Analogue Assault” sounds like the soundtrack and dark and grimy cyborg spy movie, while “Think Tank” merrily slides in some funk. “Intruders” delivers on a steady beat, a heartbeat from a calculator factory. Unfortunately, as pleasant as this album is, it really doesn’t offer anything new (worse, the tracks tend to get repetitive) and mostly fades into the background. It’s like a cool Michigan breeze that refreshes as it passes by, but then quickly disappears in the distance.
