Wellwellsound – From The Heart of The Console (2014)




/8-bit, Chiptune, Tracker music, Crossover, DIY, Remixes, Reggae, Lo-fi, Chipbreak, Dub, Primitive music, Nintendocore/

Comment: primitive patterns and expression language in art could be truly appealing. Wellwellsound`s 6-piece issue which is made up of remixes is this sort of. Actually I have no exact idea why this album chimes in this way as it used to enact. Is it either the case of rough chiptune/8-bit rhythm progressions and clumsy melody shifts or lo-fi/DIY tinged essence of reggae and dub music? By virtue of spaced-out echo/delay effects the music is signally more slowed down than a common videogame issue. However, depending on a particular composition there are up different examples of how the tracks are balanced or more inclined toward one or another. Actually there is represented third element either (on this occasion it is deliberately separated from the chiptune part by my perception) – it is a sort of digital debris which used to appear through minor effects and in the embodiment of subdued noises here and there. Consequently it can be admitted both these compartments do manifest free nature of the human being by creating the music.

NDR002-BABYLON BY USB (2014)




/8-bit, Tracker music, Dub, Reggae, Chiptune, Mood music, Chip-hop, Alternative dance, Raggamuffin, Crossover/

Comment: At first I would thank Natty Droid Netlabel for that unique crossover music act where rough chiptune induced rhythms meet catchy chanting in the vein of reggae music, dub, reggaeton and ragamuffin. I am very sure anyone who is ready to take on this 35-track (within  folders) menarche would find out his/her favourite track. The compilation is collaborated by many artists under the aforementioned imprint. It almost sounds like a punk album by its attitude and actually deviating quite a little from the soundscape of such prominent (post)-punk groups like The Clash, The Slits and Public Image Limited who liked to explore the interface between punk rock and dub music. Truly enchanting music by any means. Get it.
