Direct from the offices of Dutch East India. >> SQUAREPUSHER / RICHARD THOMAS I Am Carnal (And I Know that You Approve) Unbelievable meeting of minds wherein Thomas passes the ball - the ultra pop hook infested lo slung groover 'I Am Carnal' - to the 'pusher who transforms it into a warped slice of Miles Davis like ultrafunk, back to Thomas who mangles it into near unrecognizable sonic carnage and last word to SQ for a final modal mood requiem. A Future classic for deranged minds everywhere. Richard Thomas was recently referred to as 'an electronics fiend whose collocation of skewed squiggles suggest he could happily be the next Aphex Twin', the same article (The Guardian) said of Squarepusher 'his music is rhythmically mind- boggling but shot with gorgeous tunes and infused with a sense of humor.' This EP will be followed by the full length Richard Thomas CD 'Soggy Martyrs'. Richard is currently working on remixes for Laub and Piano Magic and a collaboration with Kieran Hebden (Fridge/Four Tet Pietro. _____________________________________ Pietro Da Sacco, m b m @ n e t c o r e . c a ::: Grooves Magazine ::: ::: Experimental Electronica in Words ::: http://www.rain.org/~audio/grooves/ ::: Insound.com Zinestand ::: http://www.insound.com/zinestand/grooves/
