Comment: this handful of compositions is a consistent blend of rough electro-acoustic, rugged chamber music, and more sublime ambient and volatile electronic progressions. Musically it is intriguing to listen to it because electronic music is seamlessly mixed up with sounds of natural instruments. For charlatans I guess it would be a good fare to describe their view of outer space through the aforementioned elements, of how masculine and feminine genuine/primal matter will meet each other, of how energy will have been lead in a proper way. They might be right, by the way. You can not wave off odds and ends within it because it is the main ingredient to lift the whole up to the next level. A Smashed Up World is the final issue on it and being the right choice for it. The composition will expand epically due to fine-grained glitches and the dense orchestrated drone which is going upwards again and again. The outing is a mote in the discography of EverythingIsChemical.
