Shock Treatment Option
Ahh. Here's some serious art damage that careens
from ambient industrial to the astringent squonks, bleeps and clamor of
'60s avant-garde to the angst-ridden sonic shards and noisy electronic
reflections of the post-industrial mess we find ourselves in now. Featuring
Tom Dimuzio, Ron Lessard (the man behind RRRecords) and John Wiggins,
Due Process knows how to crank it out. While they can create a terrific
din, the music actually leans a bit in the ambient direction, with lower
dynamics and muffled timbres, albeit with a raucous pandemonium of noise
just beneath the surface. Dean Suzuki
Bananafish
Their new god which is a dry mark colored
pencil ("Marky") fondles live wires of houses resouled for the
bankrupt 'adopt-a-child' program and in the consciousness ensuing directs
them to it's carbon headed nipple. The S.0.S. signals are picked up by
SyncIaviiti brand sperm in different world labs and break out of the glass
slide prisons they lay in to go looking for sex in mayonaise sandwiches
at the lounge area of the lab complex. This one leaves a real good taste
in your mouth and shit in your tummy-tum. Seymour Glass
Electronic Shock Treatment
This CD is built up from eIecronic sampling, crude noise
machines, radio screech, and other like-minded electronic sounds. The
three people who here comprise Due Process (Tom Dimuzio, Ron Lessard,
and John Wiggins),seem to have forsworn any hint of environmental sound,
opting instead for a soundscape that is entirely electronic based. There
are 18 tracks with no listed titles. I assume they would be generically
titled Combine with the respective number added as identifier. The basic
theme would seem to be one of clouding everything in mystery - the suppression
of information in order to allow tile listener to approach the music unhindered
by intellectual baggage. The electronic music making up ihis recording
is quite cold, with dense textures that seem alienating and harsh. By
the tenth sub-section of Combine the electronics have moved into the stellar
regions frequented by such noise merchants as Merzbow or Hanatarash. Later
the volume and intensity will drop for a while, only to re-explode around
the fifteenth sub-section. This would be perfect music to have on whilst
reading science fiction. l am left thinking of a future world where this
brooding, beautiful music is the soundtrack to the frightening and disorientating
events unfolding before our eyes. A nasty world but a terrific soundtrack.
