Comment:
it is said this 8-notch track is a collection of
unreleased/lost/weird stuff, marking 10 years of Comptroller since
2006 to 2016. So yes by watching the row of released albums by
Edinburgh, Scotland-based artist it could be said he has reached
aesthetically much during this span of time. Musically he has
revitalised a Commodore 64 and Amiga and game console-based
tradition, called chiptune/8-bit/tracker music. With regards to most
nowadays electronica traditions it could be said that the tracker
music legacy is more about to create an electrically loaded field
around the listener. In other words, one can perceive thick, loaded
electric flows coming out from the both stereo channels. So yes, you
can perceive those awkward, rough tiny muscles being constrained
behind those electro chords (at times being quite close to the
electro-punk/indie attitude). In a word, it is a nice retrospection
of the artist.
