Slime unearths powerful rhythms while at the same time uncovering unique sub-genres that coalesce on this multifaceted and heavy-duty album.
Distorted high-tech electronics
Produced by Benjamin Hudson (aka Brain Rays) and friends, Slime is a ten-track audio café of ruffled electronics and panoramic bass thuds gone awry. A powerful smorgasbord that never lets up with its potent mix of creative sounds including blistered electro bleeps, abstract glitch hip-hop structures, crunching techno, and exploding low-end, Slime unearths powerful rhythms while at the same time uncovering unique sub-genres that coalesce on this multifaceted and heavy-duty album.
Slime covers every possible sound space, from the distilled synth-work of “Nightcrawler” halfway through to the subdued acid techno of “Vape Scarf (feat. Chevron)” and the thunderous bass rhythms of “Ghost Burger (feat. Neil Landstrumm)” and “Oddball.” While the frantic breakcore blips and flickering voices of closure track “Pizza (feat. Shadesy)” delve into a viscous stew, “Sleepy Head (feat. Mully & THIRRRSTY)” is a captivating and blistering sci-fi electro excursion with tangled and gritty electronics merged with cascading orchestral strands.
What Acroplane have refreshingly revealed here, is an extreme saturation of distorted high-tech electronics and fun-packed soundtracks.
