awesome set. thanks for the share, this is a good break from all the me-too minimal/tech i'd been hearing too much of as of late. really got into this one.

I don't know, it may sound good in a good sound-system, but i almost had a nervous breakdown by listening to it in my computer. the effect of the current product should not be underestimated since, even after a few minutes of listening, the substance-free, non-experienced listener may acquire agressive tendencies and thoughts of badly hurting his/her computer. The current, slightly over-the-top, responses may be directly attributed to the presented material's auditory content. Some little (minimal) samples and vocal-samples sound like using small knives and nails to perform little slices and scratches on a blackboard and the tune at the 18-minute mark with the disturbing-as-hell female voice is an example of why a male may temporarily generate strong phallocratic attitudes. Another "strong" moment was the one at the 10-minute track in which for some minutes (which i lost count because under the effect of the current sound you may experience the decline-of-consciousness and decrease-of-intelligence effects) you get exposed to something that sounds like an autistic repeatetive man yelling to a looped signal coming from outer space. The tune at 41-minute mark has some nice funky (!) barely-audible elements but you still need hard drugs to appreciate its "funkness". Ofcourse thats before some small little farts come in and ruin all the fun and then even the "drugs don't work". The slowcore techo at the 47-minute mark is good, but it would have been x1000 times better if it was presented like a normal techno tune rather than a collection of slow barely audible elements. There are some okish elements here and there but these good points are vastly outweighed by negative ones such as vocal samples that appear to be voices that suddenly suffer from an asthma attack in the middle of the tune, or vocal samples that sound like Jaba-the-Hut whispering sexual words to princess Lea. The track towards the end is comprised by a snare and a tribal drum or something and at this point you realise that all the sound loses meaning because there is no really any sound in the first place. I think that the best tune is the first one by far-a typical generic techno tune. I swear, it was the first time i saw unicorns with generic techno...

As I said, this wasn't and isn't meant to appeal to everyone, I simply posted it to show people on TA what ACTUAL minimal techno, given how much the word is thrown around uselessly here...

There should be another definition...
