Why I like it:

If you were wondering where good minimal went hiding, you need to look no further. Lek Black is back from the recent N.R.S affair, changing the style a few degrees from his numerous appearances on Symptoms of compliance. For starters the beat per minute count slowed down a bit, you can feel it in the reappearing kick. The mysterious aspects are still present and the scant mellodies remind of any half-coherent Richard D. James album immersed in heavy delays. The end result is a mission through minimal with eerie undertones, progressive moments, tribal teases and speck of groove. Closing the book awaits a strange down tempo fusion, with all the tall-tale signs of Black, exploring dubby basses and hip beats.

 

Why you might like it:

The kicks might not be very varied throughout, but the echoing congas and tambourines with numerous rhythmic artifacts complement the production well. A bit more musically inspired (and thats no insuation of sweet-tooth) than his earlier work, an interesting side of Black seems to develop. The outcome is reserved, retaining that mechanical vibe Last possible solution has been releasing lately.

 

 

My highlights :

 

02. Splinter

A strong beat with generous use of bass in chain-saw mode, quirky synth lines, a tea-spoon of funk with the mysterious aura that seems to surround anything Lek is producing. Stuck in the middle, a slice of heaven visible only when the dark clouds dissipate (around minute 2:30).

 

 

 

04. A Sign of Decay

Using a very layered approach to the composition with a myriad number of sublevels to get the message across. Screams heavily delayed, squelchy effects, droid-like harmonics and a standard bass line.

 

 

06. Ashamand (SPC vs DJ Bendler)

A much welcomed organic drumming accompaniment, alongside subtle "ohh" samples with a new assortment of drone outputs turning liquid. The production feels more rounded and when Black gets a bit of help it shows through.

 

 

08. Electrical Redistributer

Displaying a carnivalesque beat without being joyful, the song moves forward in between the couple of breaks without even attempting building ups. The chain-like bass once again explores slightly different ideas, as the ussual porn the collector has been sharing keeping the higher ranges on a mental hard on.

5/10 from me, it is not = astrix though, i like it more : ) but it sounds simple and dull sometimes. Not bad, but not among my favourites, and it could sound better if there were more work in it, when i listen to it i don't feel that there is a huge work put into the tracks.

 

PS : Track 1, killer bassline : )

I really dig NRS and buy anything on LPS, but this one fails to get me going unfortunatly... track 6 briefly has it, but only because of the old drum loop from Futuristic Poetry. The bass line on track 1 is a good hook as well, but that's about it. Building blocks for minimal mixers...
