Rated 5/5
Review by Matvey_Andreyev Jan 06, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)
The sound quality is better than on Symphony #2 - better mixing and mastering. A lot of structures from this release are used in Symphony #2, making it sound like alternative lo-fi versions of Symphony #1 tracks.

Some tracks here have irresistible groovy rhythms and industrial bass - it's hard to believe that it has been done with a dotmatrix printer.

Three mp3 links on their page have some decent titles, "Control to Efficiency", "Efficiency" and "New Existential Clause" - working-titles, maybe.

This is a hard work of a genius. A must-have experimental record.
