LP 5390 JPY

Cyber-folk and post-techno from "Sworx," a team-up between Morgan Buckley and Ben Donohoe, core members of Dublin's hugely popular crew Wah Wah Wino. The info sheet calls it "crowdrock." Polyrhythmic, paranoiac sound brimming with the humor and mischief you'd expect from Wah Wah Wino. Don't sleep on this one!

A near-future world of digital pastoralism, framed by the fictional conceit of being guided by the all-knowing dial-up modem "Sworx," analyzing and classifying encrypted waveform data and converting it into music. The duo, who also left an album on Wah Wah Wino as Little Movies, team up once again. Twelve tracks of mutant electro to IDM, shot through with traces of Aphex Twin, Oval, and Arthur Russell. Somehow pastoral and humorous, this is the sound of an unpredictable "post-fiber-optic technology [idm wav. tablé]." Uncanny. (Original Japanese text by Adachi)
