Comment:
undoubtedly this patch of 13 tracks is not an easy fare to be
described although musically it is an enjoyable ride. Olympic Smoker
is an artist from Russia who did start making music in the mid of the
00s. Lots of spiky rhythms, low frequencies and different tempos used
to surface and fade away. Clangour is traded for silent progressions
occasionally (even a couple of piano balladry stylised snippets are
represented over there). I would like to call it
post-breakbeat/post-techno/post-jungle music because it contains
vague echoes of the aforementioned styles yet surpassing obviously
their limits and thriving toward a wider comprehension. Some
advantage of the album is a partial withdrawal at greater extent from
the annoying contemporary post-dubstep and autotune/poptronic
influenced (electronic) pop scene. There is no need to waste time on
the aesthetics of softened artists and thin machines. All we need is
more power, more jungle, more sweat, more pain, more sincerity, more
natural feelings and organic consequences! We need more Barry Whites,
Fausts, Sun Ras, Aphex Twins, Kraftwerks, Pulps, Joy Divisions, My
Bloody Valentines, Scott Walkers, Johnny Cashes, CANs, The Smiths,
Sonic Youths, Carpenters, Authechres, Lee Hazlewoods, Nina Simones,
Diana Rosses! We need more obsessed characters and especially natured
mavericks! The release is a part of the discography of Chinese
imprint, Bypass.
