Somebody posted this on another forum and I thought it was too funny not to share. Id like to point out that these aren't my veiws, and neither have i heard the album so I cant comment, but, it is funny...

Unabashedly mixed on Ableton which Sasha praises highly in the sleeve notes- the album promises to impart on the listener a musical opus that is the formidable DJ Sasha "having the time of his life" .
Now I'm a patient man, I don't like to judge too harshly until I've had a good few listens. Fundacions fifth and final chance was this morning - and I therefor am permitted to vent forth my spleen thusly:
First 15 minutes, not bad - good in some places even. This soon gives way to perhaps the most convoluted exploration of a DJ's own arsehole I've ever had the misfortune to suffer. Ableton has given the DJ the freedom to cut and remix tracks and effect loops to the hearts content - and that is what Sasha does....endlessly, to skull ingly banal effect. No semblence of a tune, just head down narccissitic noodling that drops out of the speakers like a dry, wipe free turd. A real crowd pleaser.
You may be familiar with the situation - your hunched over Reason locked into your lastest loop, it's been relentlessly twisting around your head - and it's best ing thing you've ever heard. Breathlessly you add effects, cut sections tighten,loosen,widen flatten the sound - "my god I'm a ing genius!" you think.......then after a quick cup of tea you realise you were just lost inside you're fantasy world and actually what you have created sounds the raping of the vestal virgins on the final furlong of the cheltenham gold cup.....
Sasha's new mix although in this vein, is nowhere near as interesting. It's flat, luke warm and inspired only by Sasha's inflated DJ ego.
I bet he was naked when he recorded it, in a room surrounded mirrors so he could witness the divinity that it is himself DJ Sasha! As he recasts the future of dance music in the image of his own hardened and most virile state. cnut. |
