MUSIC: you must listen to Pictureplane...
the album starts with a retro rave sound set on an old school breakbeat/d&b rhythm...but it doesn't stay there.
what strikes me about this record, is that every sound matters, on every song. somehow, Pictureplane manages to synthesise so many qualities/ elements of my musical past life. and then, he doesn't resurrect or reincarnate them; it's like he reanimates them...
THEE PHYSICAL by PICTUREPLANE
freaking fantastic stuff...but so NOT the type of show AlSto will enjoy going to with me... ;-P huge thanks to TERRORBIRD for turning me on to yet another record!
