PJ001 - transmission #01 (2011)


Pjoew

8.7

/IDM, Electronic pop, Indietronica, Drum and bass/

Comment: This is the first and the last issue under Pjoew to date. This is a compilation of 13 tracks based mainly upon spacious IDM-lines and burbling synth-driven electronic pop cores and at times guitar chord-dominated electronic indie as well. However, there are some exceptions as well. For instance, CruizeOfFiction`s Contrail is a subtle drum and bass/dream and bass, or HyeVolture`s Hye walkure, part 1: you're armed (...and your sick shit) resembles somehow those sounds made by Radiohead upon the Kid A. And a kind of shrilling lo-fi electronica made by Olkin Donder (Total Tendencies). Anyway, my favorite is Teebo`s The sound of 1000 growing trees which makes huge sense with slightly psychedelic synth shreds and crescending space around it. A strong output indeed.
