Atrax Morgue - Cut My Throat FLAC

A release way ahead of its time. A clear forerunner, though generally unacknowledged as such, to the recent upsurge in highly abstract computer composition, the deconstructed dance music of the likes of Russell Hasswell, Evol, Florian Hecker, Lorenzo Senni et al. However, where the latter musicians relay mainly on the computer, Atrax Morgue uses minimal analogue gear. This, in my opinion, adds an extra sonic layer of texture to the music which is missing from more modern compositions. Indeed, this clearly highlights the composers great ability to create immensely visceral music with such a minimal setup. So, this is not your average power electronics/industrial record, though "I Cut Yours" gradually morphs into a gritty and powerful rhythmic noise assault, but a highly accomplished piece of modern electronic composition, ready to be rediscovered by a new generation of inquisitive electronic music fans.
