Another Chain Reaction release, another metal box that eats up CDs. Hopefully, you’ll have saved Porter Ricks’ Biokinetics album in a separate container, because you don’t want it to be destroyed. The first track, “Port Gentil,” is a shimmering piece of minimalism, with all the hallmarks of the Chain Reaction sound. But the majority of the tracks here are more on the ambient tip, with industrial chugs and grunts. “Biokinetics 1” and “Biokinetics 2” are cold, haunting works. “Port of Call” goes back to the rhythmical, but the spookiness of the ambient works is still there, while “Port of Nuba” and its companion, “Nautical Nuba,” are all clicks and thumps. “Nautical Zone” ends the album on a glimmering note. Though Biokinetics isn’t quite as wonderful as some other Chain Reaction releases, it’s still worth saving!
