Plastiq Phantom – Enjoy The Art Of Lying Down
Experimental techno resembling a cross between Autechre and old school Art of Noise, but with a unique signature. Plastiq is an absolute madman when he performs, but his album is a more subdued, restrained slice of electronic weirdness. Standout tracks: “Kicking Mister Bubbles” with its relentless clattering and mechanical melody; the radio static and samples that drive “Slouch,” creating an atmosphere of music desperately trying to reach its destination.
