First listen bored me when it was released, but I came back to it after hearing Gaiser's
Blank Fade, maybe to make a kind of M_nus statement for 2008(...).
What's appealing is how the melodies stays in mind long time after a listen. He does kind of miracles by repeating the melody in the same track but in different ways. There are moments where he evolves in pure ambient fields, but that's not too long, and he uses this to make the transition with the next one.
His basslines seem to be the most oldschool of all the M_nus guild, and that almost everything on LP doesn't sound like the minimal sound I could think about before. Just an impression.
Gaiser's first LP is good too, maybe too long to start off (first 3-4 tracks could have been cutted from the cd), but this is still good work. Still waiting to listen to this in a decent version, though.
But I think we are all waiting for a new Plastikman to know where the sound will go, instead of remembering from where he comes from...
