DROWNED IN SOUND REVIEW:
Lung, Rotter and Seven – Coptum/Dammer (PiX WaX)
textErstwhile Two Lone Swordsmen collaborators and members of Tokyo Wind Bag, Lung and Chris Rotter have teamed up with Barry Seven, ex of Add N to (X), to forge what is hopefully a long-lasting partnership. Composed solely on the Korg DS-10 app for the Nintendo DS, 'Coptum' and 'Dammer' should make anyone who's been using their handheld to muck about with GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra or care for their dinosaur pet to hang their heads in self-loathing: they could have been creating chipcore stadium anthems instead.
'Coptum' kicks off with a glam rock drum pattern before unleashing a bassy techno assault offset by high-end squiggles, lazer f/x and a woozy fairground melody that puts me uncomfortably in mind of murderous clowns on psilocybin. If that sounds a little too John Wayne Gacy for you, flip over to 'Dammer', one of those tunes that you have to play at least three times in quick succession when you first drop the needle on it. Its buzzing, Moroderish bassline is very similar to the one that kicks in halfway through the Horrors' 'Sea Within a Sea', the intertwining melodies that heap up throughout its too-brief 3:20 length - underpinned by a frank breakbeat - making this a sublime, euphoric piece of work .
TIME OUT REVIEW:
'a stuttering but spangly exercise in neo - kraftwerkian cool , composed on a bunch of nintendo ds-10s.who'd have figured they had so much soul?
