Our superheroes from the depths of the Great Sea Gerald Donald & James Stinson have brought a huge treasure with this intense, full of lovely texture chords and powerfull bass electro: “Polynomo Plexüsgel”. An incredible harmonic note sequence at the drop out represents just the point of the iceberg on this marvelous journey into the outworld. Amazing as it may seem, the tune englobes also the funky components with the breakbeats and the basslines. This surreal combination could only be considered one of the best electro track ever, and the finest track on this release. With a rough four by four beats, “Lost Vessel” has sweet lines of keyboards notes and textures, and also some strange basslines and timbres, but a more experimental and hypnotic approach can be felt on the “Species of the Pod”, an electro trippy masterpiece played only by the most courageous. On the same way of experimentalism goes “Drifting Into A Time Of No Future”, a scary ambient madness for the unadvised. And who told the classical music influences cannot be felt? That’s the case of the violins simulation strings that gives the environment to “Quantum Hydrodynamics”: it’s the past melted on the future all over the place.
