Comment: I like this issue of 9 tracks at a length of 32 minute. It can be
said Aidan Wall is a mastermind to create short-running yet concise
compositions with electronic keyboards and low-end rhythm machines which are to
constitute persuasive backdrops to his volatile and dreamy vocal delivery. More
generally, partly Aidan Wall comes out of the tradition of the so-called
psychedelic electronic indie music which was mostly created by the Animal
Collective and it members` side projects. Those elliptically circulating chords
and sonorous odds and ends around it as satellites are the proof of it. On the
other side it is distinctly influenced by all-powerful DIY attitude which
inspired, still inspires and will inspire many youth artists in the future (for
instance, cassette-based underground culture movement in the 80s, Not Not Fun and Rack & Ruin Records´ related artists nowadays). Thirdly, My Bloody Valentine is probably the most
influential Irish combo and because of it you can also hear the juggernaut`s
impulses in Wall`s music. Theoretically it might seem in the way described
above yet many melody and harmony lines are up there to create the backbone to
the album. The issue is a part of the discography of Dublin-based Long Lost
Records. Fabulous release for sure.
