Glander - Heavy Weights

boraxmole, Nov 22, 2007

Among netlabels, there are very few releases that actually are worth the time and effort spent searching for them. However, this falls into a whole other category. I think people would actually pay for this release if it had the option. Honestly, this is the best netlabel release I have heard thus far in any genre. Most straight to internet releases are basically overwrought with digital/glitch aesthetics (or lack thereof), but this release manages to overcome that.

This seems to take some influence from early Vladislav Delay, minus the ambient tracks. Long, drawn-out dub techno/house - or something - theres always bass and 4/4 beats, but it definitely eschews conventions. Simply put: this guy has his own sound and should be selling this because people would buy it. Best netlabel release thus far, in my book.
