12 trks, 52 mins. Pure mentalist, techno, jungle, gabba-nois ecore with a few ambient tracks scattered in the mix too. De finitive and brutal. MC Wayne Lonesome brings the dancehall!
(violent sounds from violent fans, enemies, journalists, publicists, peers, and the kid) I'm getting tired of these "complex" artists. Complex is OK if the sounds have some musical quality. This guy has no talent -- unless the ability to string together bleeps and machinery hum is considered to be quality "music". You have to have a sense of humour to appreciate it, but I just love it. It's the sound of one man just being a right noisy bastard and making a bleedin' racket, in a creative way. This inaccessible stuff is what gives electronic music a bad name. Whatever happened to driving bass lines, rocking drum machines, and euphoric melodies? KILL SOUND BEFORE SOUND KILLS YOU The kid is an indiepunkgabberidmraverblastbasher of the highest caliber, which means not everything he releases (which is a lot of material over all) snuggly fits into one genre or one style. The guy's all over the place, often from release to release, so it would seem the best way to approach his output is first off with a very open mind. I've always though of Kid 606 as a third rate Autechre. Guys like him are a dime-a-dozen in the IDM scene. If it wasn't for Aphex Twin, Autechre, Squarepusher, and Boards of Canada, IDM would be a dead scene. I "dig" all types of music. I mainly gravitate toward anything electronic, and that's why this got a review from me. It's a free country. I can call it like I see it! Kid 606 sucks, no matter what you call his style of "music". I'm unclear on how kid606 could be even remotely compared to artists like autechre, aphex twin, etc. idm would be dead without them? bullshit! idm was dying, and it took people like kid606, blectum from blechdom, cex, lesser, matmos, etc. to revitalize it. bay area hardcore. KILL SOUND BEFORE SOUND KILLS YOU It just goes to.......

Kid 606 "Kill Sound Before Sounds Kill You" Ipecac

Rewind Records: SoundMurderer + SK-1 Rewind/ Rephlex

Od pop'u, poprzez klabing, R&B i hip hop, aż po underground – w ostatnich miesiącach w każdym zakątku muzycznej sceny rządzą wpływy ragga. W kręgu undergroundu najbardziej wpływowy okazał się projekt Kevina Martina, The Bug. Oto albumy, które wspaniale rozwijają radykalną wizję opancerzonej muzyki ragga. Rewind to pierwsza wytwórnia jungle z Detroit. Jej szef Todd Osborn kooperuje także z Kidem 606 i The Bug. W Europie lansuje ich Rephlex Aphex Twina, czego efektem jest ta płyta ze zbiorem prawdziwie wystrzałowych singli z całej historii Rewind. Czujne ragga przechodzi we wściekle, surowe jungle, gięte jest elektroniczną kanonadą i nakręcane korzennymi nawijkami. Nie inaczej – z tym, że zwiększym poszatkowanym cyber-przyspieszeniem i nieodłącznym sznytem zawadiackiej groteski - jest na nowym albumie Kida, który wreszcie nagrał płytę od dzieciaka dla dzieciaków. Oba albumy to niezwykle udane skoczne, radosne, mocne i zakręcone propozycje na alternatywne imprezy.
