Reviews
Signalform + Tachikoma - Understanding Media
Not quite beat-driven, but certainly not devoid of abstract rhythm, well-produced and squeaky-clean in its sound dynamics, "Understanding Media" won't necessarily provide any global communications epiphanies or surpass any typical IDM frontiers, but it will undoubtedly de-stress the hectic postmodern life.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews/r_signalformtachikoma_um.htm
Zonk't - -trope
Laurent Perrier is a name you definitly will hear more about in the future. A multi-talented musican / artist with much more capabilities then just one single style. And not many artists are capable of
excelling in multiple genres.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews/r_zonkt_t.htm
Glaukom Synod - Uczulony
This is still a fair deal better than so many of the other electro/noise/grindcore mashup bands out there, and all in all, despite the inherent problems mentioned, this is still a good release. Some of the songs really just makes you want to get up and rhythmically punch someone in the face!
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews/r_glaukomsynod_u.htm
Ova Looven - Gravity Has Expired
Combining the post punk and shoegaze of New York with a dreamier, electro-ambient toolkit, Ova Looven's new 12" single yields easy listening and sweetness but is by no means without depth.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews/r_ovalooven_ghe.htm
V/A - Beyond Ignorance And Borders
C-drik clearly understands the exotic allure of foreign sounds set in a contemporary experimental context but didn't quite get the balance right with this compilation, as many of the tracks sound a little generic and don't really connect the listener with their origins.
