Fans of Aphex Twin, Richard H. Kirk, Black Devil Disco Club and of course Derek Piotr and Cathode Ray Tube will appreciate this maxi EP.
Derek Piotr has a remix out on a fantastic release from America’s heartland. Chaircrusher’s OBSTINATO EP (Cornwarning) contains seven original tracks and two remixes. Chaircrusher is the long-known nom-de-synth of Iowa’s Kent Williams. In addition to being an accomplished musician, Williams is responsible for bringing some of the best-known names in electronic music to the cornbelt like Deadbeat, Kid 606 and Stewart Walker to name a few. The OBSTINATO EP is a clever collection of electronics centered around off-kilter, glitchy beats with a heavy nod towards the dancefloor. In addition to Derek Piotr’s glitched-up noisy remix, Cathode Ray Tube also provides a speed-ambient remix of the album’s title track. Fans of Aphex Twin, Richard H. Kirk, Black Devil Disco Club and of course Derek Piotr and Cathode Ray Tube will appreciate this maxi EP.
OBSTINATO is available on Cornwarning.
