Comment: I
do not know what exactly does it mean “ghetto plasma blaster” regarding its
functionality and purpose. However, musically it is an impressive set of 10 tracks
composed of droning noises, low bass frequencies, bass-heavy rhythms and
spaced-out electronic chaos often amplified by dub music-like reverberations
and echoes bringing forth some very deep sound layers from the bottom. These
elements constitute different combinations within the compartment of electronic
music. At times there are up more light-hearted moods supported by glockenspiel
chords (888 Stone Steps To The Top). Barry Leaman and Steve Meltzer have done good job because all the aforementioned elements are craftily interwoven with each other and thereby providing no
gaps for boredom and nonsense. Although the issue has been released in 2014 it
could have been a part of emerging electronic music scene for some decades ago
due to its timeless touch and dexterity and unconnectedness to human related
aspects. The release is a piece of the discography of an interesting and
diverse music label, called 2419 Record Label.
