Release Notes:
For those who have seen their live show at festivals such as
Sonica, Universo Paralello or Glade the debut album by Warp
Technique is a long awaited tonic. For those who haven't, a world
of pleasure awaits!
Sounding like a double-dipped Trentemoller, Warp Technique weave
divergent genres into their psychedelic stew: the album opens
with the eerie Softly Spoken Spell, full of sounds from an
ambient jungle; Nowhere Dub lulls one into a trance with its
seductive bass and soothing synths before the bassline heaven of
Make Animals Happy kicks in.
Nightbreak steps up the pace, progressing from a downbeat intro
into a pulsating beast, complete with old school synth riffs -
definitely one for the dancefloor; Wonderland Dub kicks back a
gear, in a delightfully bass fuelled skanking kind of way, before
History of Dreams and Whale Salt Dog (how do they come up with
these names?!) resume the journey to another world, eventually
arriving at the epic Arab Star, an organic odyssey of progressive
beats, 'world'ly samples and psychedelic motifs.
Solid State takes an inspirational speech by Martin Luther King,
and weaves it into chunky breakbeats and cheeky acid lines, while
Warp Dub 5 and Valley of Kodama prepare for the unfortunate
eturn to reality - the album is over
All in all, an excellent adventure, full of innovation and
contrast, with never a dull moment
