Ay "Wet Pop" tape


Robotic technopop, fuzzy and scratchy, if Prodigy left their instruments and electronics to weather and decay and then applied filters to the damage. A place where if you look closer, all the animals are mechanical and there are wires strung through the trees...

Severely warped, bleached and echoed, subtle shifts that are usually difficult to catch on tape - here it's the perfect medium, it would lose some of its irreverence on CD.

Marching ringing loops, purposeful-sounding skips and vast changes in volume. It demands your attention but doesn't require it to keep churning. If there are visuals to go along with these tracks, they must be amazing and terrifying, giallo-colorful and jittery White Zombie animations.

Supersonic swirls, wild beats spinning madly, warped voices and tings, the Top 10 pop tunes run amok. The only brief piece with audible vocals distracts from the beautiful jagged music, and the soft sendaway doesn't satisfy, but overall a strong, memorable cassette. 9/10 -- April Larson (3 November, 2009)
