This is a more dreamlike release than any of the other Analords (except arguably Analord 8). My favorite tracks are those on the A side; Phonatacid displays a master of programing and filtering knowledge and haunting melodies, while the milky Laricheard beats on into forever with a snareless two step and lots of reverb. Very good synth work here as well.

Am i the only person that doesn't like these?! Analord is yet another money maker from afx who seemingly has lot all his genius. The man has made a huge amount of amazing music and nothing can take that away from him, but do you really want to fork out so much money for these half baked EPs?! Analord 10 cost £40 on its own for 2 tracks and a crappy leather case!!! Having heard all the analord to date id have to say it sounds like early songs from the mid 90s that were rejected until now. For something similar to this but better, get some early Mu-Ziq albums or anything under the kid spatula moniker.

This is just the best listening dance music.
A really lovely record that I will probably play for the rest of my life.
Up there with the Chicago classics but in a afx unique style
Really emotive vocoders in here,deep,deep basslines,
the vocoder at one point is unlike anything ive heard.

This is mad, if you can imgaine this, its an emulation of the fingers inc style of acid that Larry Heard did so well. Phonatacid and Laricheard could easily be remakes of Beyond the clouds or even Washing Machine. The B side Pissed up in SE1 and Bwoon dub are more like old Babyford tracks. This along with stepping filter #1 from Analord 1 is a welcome return to form for RDJ.

5/5
