Comment: I guess everyone who has listened to the likes of an early Cabaret Voltaire and other then-old school industrial experimentators, BBC Radiophonic Workshop, library music tapes, some early albums by The Hirundu (headed up by John Crewdson), more poppier R Stevie Moore and Ariel Pink and Rangers and Ducktails is able to understand the aesthetics of Clockwork Keyboard which is the collaboration act between Loose Link, Sven Meyer, and Noisesurfer. This huge cluster of 18 tracks takes on warped ambient music which is corrupted and increased in size due to rough beats, low but organic noises, globular psychedelic whiffs, mesmerizing droning and incisive sonic effects. Moreover, even sublime deep house oscillations do have a strong impact upon the soundscape. In a nutshell, I used to have a soft spot for such kind of music because its slight imperfectness seems to be quite perfect in a paradoxic way. Almost all the things which used to be way too produced are hermetic and without remarkable touch by their nature.
