Rated 5/5
Review by ecuadorian_bass Dec 22, 2004 (edited over 4 years ago)
Fantastic release by Schmidt. The whole album has an 'organic' feel that is reminiscent of Aphex Twin's productions ie: electronic but not entirely computerised/mechanical/digital (where do those samples come from?). But paradoxically Schmidt manages to conjure sounds and rhythms that are mechanized to the extreme. Whirring flywheels, pumping pistons and flailing robotic arms are the images that I conjure up when listening to this gem. The best example of this is Stress that sounds like it was made by utilizing the innards of a GM Motors factory. But the highlight of the album is Too Honest with its 'Tainted Love' rhythm and bouncy sub bass which manages to retain an air of melancholy that somehow just works. Destroy is a great outing for Schmidt that has spurred me on to hunt out more of his work.
