Pleasant harmonious glitch. Discord is as funky as it is dissonant. The
plastic ambien-techno derived by these two stateside producers keeps a mostly
low profile. While there, the crispy beats are full-bodied hip-a-rific.
The collaboration allows for a wider perspective on steamy space sounds for
mutant galaxies. Things start to build and take shape on White’s “Have Mercy” tonally kicking up the pace a few notches. 
Then on “Expando” the
clockwork pacing builds and hides schematically. The whole thing reminds me
of a waiting game, building a nose-to-the-grindstone type crescendo. This
seamlessly meets Walker’s “Merciless Pt. 2” which chills the blaze with bass
and echo. These guys take turns creating preludes to each others pieces and
the mix is truly continuous, a real collaboration that communicates. “Cloud
City” is classic Force, Inc. with hints of Vladislav Delay and even Thomas
Koner. The clicks and drones are righteously married in a fortified mix
that keeps you an active listener. “Cumulus Bloom” takes down the house
with microbeats and floating, synthetic tones bleeding right into Walker’s
“Simulife” conclusion. This recording is a fragmented reckoning of the
senses.
