Chris Graves: Colongib 1 (cassette demo)
Wicked cassette of sixteen tracks ranging from the obscure to the
melodic.  I hate to make comparisons, especially with a demo, but... a
lot of this reminds me of autechre.  Now I don't mean that this is an ae
rip off, but the experimentation with the um... odd sound, is quite
similar.   Opposed to ae, though, there is a lot more noise interlaced in
the rhythm, similar to the v/vm stuff.  A lot of breakbeaty/ dn'b stuff,
many of which contain some massive distortion on top.  A couple of the
tracks start off 
with lots of noise blending seemlessly into breaks and such.  Shades of
video game soundtracks here and there.  It also sounds like a few
turntable experiments were thrown in for good measure. All i can say is
wow. This tape is great and won't be leaving my tape deck soon.
