Slabs of robotic electro slide across the grooves of this record as it illustrates subdued fury in a 20-minute escape through time. Hype; while in most cases is focused on overly saturating the market with ploys to sway its audience comes across as aggressive or ill-conceived most of the time. In the case of Scanone’s [...]
