Microcobra Micropopcorn in our heads (XLR)


Microcobra is a 8-bit/chiptune activist-musician from Tallinn, Estonia who had previously released three albums under the labels such as Qulture Production, RUSZUD, and Drill. Micropopcorn in our heads is released under the Estonian label XLR and shows up his affinity toward retrodelic music and old game consoles, also being very keen to samples of such kind of tracks having their origin date from the 90`s or the Soviet era. However, you can sight of drifts having a fuelled drive through smart, camp-y and sometimes slippery taste as well. But it is not the matter in the first place actually - his progressions toward agressive rhythms including some flirt with jungle-paced feeling resulting up in some good impressions (8 Serdec (Telliskivi Hard Mix) ). In fact, though, in the ending part I get a bit of tired riding on it. No doubt, his first release Please, play with me (2008, RUSZUD) is used to sound as his best one continually.
