Subduxtion - Un:Mxd & Manipulated - CD (2008)

Labels: Alrealon
Review by: David Giles

This is a pretty interesting blend of dark, industrial soundscapes and glitchy, catchy beats with a great atmosphere. I think that the two main flaws with this are: firstly, the tracks tend to lose their appeal about half way through and it becomes pretty easy to switch off; secondly, they tend to end abruptly, cutting out rather than reaching any kind of conclusion. Despite this, I found this CD pretty compelling and would be interested in hearing some better-rounded versions of the tracks on it. Stand-out track has got to be “What is war?”. Not the best thing I’ve ever heard and I’m not sure how much I’ll spin this in the future, but the guy is obviously talented and could end up making some rad music.
