While this thing might | | | | have an unpronounceable title - VA1, of you were | | | | wondering - it is far easier to put into words just | | | | how high the quality of the music is. | | | | | | | | We have ourselves a varied mix of artists here, from | | | | Analogical Force favourites Bot1500 And Mause to old | | | | Romans D'Arcangelo via relative unknowns like | | | | Jessica Walrus. Whether the contributing act is a | | | | seasoned veteran or promising newcomer, every track | | | | on VA1 is chock full of ideas. Nothing here is | | | | particularly angsty, with the moodier end of the | | | | Braindance sound eschewed for zippy synths and | | | | effervescent drum programming. Cuts from Mause and | | | | Jessica Walrus are particularly spry, the beats | | | | zipping around the monitors with evident glee. | | | | Bot1500's 'Rave 5.1' channels the future-forward | | | | rave sonics of the genre's 90s heyday to create | | | | something mystical and evocative. Velum Break knocks | | | | up 'Apple Galleon', a more seasick cut with plenty | | | | of electro-funk to its bassline. D'arcangelo and | | | | fxbip provide v?1 with variation, their steady IDM- | | | | techno tunes slowing the pulse of the record down | | | | while maintaining that same sense of melodious | | | | energy as the rest of the material. | | | | | | | | Massage Brain Cult's first vinyl drop delivers a | | | | delightful half-dozen tunes which give the old | | | | Braindance sound new spark. | | | | | | | | ------------------------------------------------ | | | _|_______ _________ ______________________________| |__. | \_ _ \_\_ \_ \ ______\ ___/__ | | | | / / / / / /_/ /\___ / - N E W S - | | | | /___/ / ____/ / / / / / | | | | | /___/____/ \___/____/_________/________________________| |__| | | | | | | hi2u! go to the show, buy the records, stop whining | | | _|______ ____ ___ __________ ________________________| |__. | \_ ___/__\__ \__\_ \__\_ \_ _/__\ _/__ | | | | / \_ / _ /_ / / / / /\____ / - H E L L O - | | | | \___ / / / __/ ___/ / / / | | | | | /__/__/____/__/ \__/ /__/__________/___________________| |__| | | | | | | 13 1way aeroholics agw bass bcc berc bnp boss ct cmc | | | | d2h ddb diss divinestylers dl dps ethnic fmr fnt fwyh | | | | hit2000 hm hqem hta hushhush i8 impg jazzman kinky kw | | | | maem mbs njs noir nuc nuhs radial sb sever shelter | | | | pyt siberia soup sour sq tr trt usr | | | | | | | | ... thank you for the music and/or the good fun! | | | |_________________________________________________________| |_. | | nfo & design by #MONk!# of diViNE sTYLERS! | | | | _ |---------------------------------------------------------| _ |-' |/ \| |/ \|
