Rated 4/5
Review by maroko Jan 23, 2009
Whoa, a three tracker containing untitled tracks by some of my favorite evil minded Birmingham producers!
Surgeon kicks things off with a spooky tune, with a lead melody sounding like Danny Elfman having a bad mushroom trip while composing a theme to the Beetlejuice flick. The kick is crisp, with some xylophone-like effects getting intertwined with a melody which could have been made on a malfunctioning harp. Gloomy stuff for sure.
Regis, another one of the Downwards heroes, walks the more minimal path than I'm used to, but this nice pulsating number gently ticks along at a steady pace with a throbbing bass line. Cool tune to make me want to slumber.
The beloved Portion Reform still brings forth the gravy with the closing track. It's a pretty repetitve number in their style, with some cool noises sounding like somebody dancing like crazy while being all shackled up. The beat is steady and hard, a tad more straight for them dance floors than what they presented on the perennial "The supreme negative" album, but great nonetheless.
