Infirm Individual & AMZ (Split) - The Glorious Triforce (2011)
/Drum and bass, Jungle, IDM, Experimental electronica, 8-bit, Tracker music, Crossover, Techno/
Comment: This 13-track album is a split issue of the two artists who used to share their off-kilter but quite unique soundscape with the rest of the world. Indeed, they have a journey through the various landscapes of rhythm-based explorations. For instance, the opening track is an awesome bastard drifting between the Orb-esque ambient techno/dub and Panacea-like tough poundering of drum and bass/jungle. However, later the concept will have completed through the chiming IDM-hued techno, sharp and naive cuts of bitpop/tracker music, psychedelic soaring of electronica, and mainly through the troubled yet charming appeal of drum and bass/jungle sound. And as you have figured out it yet, there can be met a loads of shifts inbetween those aforementioned styles as well. A masterful accomplishment indeed.
