Wingclipper – Recursion (2010)



/Instrumental hip-hop, Trip-hop, Lo-fi, Sound collage, Crossover/


Comment: This 8-track issue is a patchwork of diverse styles - from instrumental hip-hop and trip-hop, down-tempo-backed rhythms to witty samples, mutanted sonic effects and arid lo-fi attitude. Sometimes it used to be hypnotically floating, at times nervously stomping and abrasive. It reminds of the workouts by the Canadian label Neferiu Records. By the way, the coverprint reminds in a funny way of the sleeve of Love`s Forever Changes (1967). However, the album seems to be the kind of grower.
