Hello. artist :: solar x title :: little pretty automatic label :: worm interface cat :: wi017 tracks :: 1 dasha 1,2,3,4... 2 one free drink 3 russian roulette 4 bullet gum 5 shoot my heart 6 happy balloon 7 xiao jie 8 net camouflage 9 supertechno A little pretty automatic B indian movie C made in tula D greeb cat E 3dpole F koroleva 11 acid for mama Q. What do you get when you cross the frantic head-fuckery of Aphex Twin's 'Bucephalus Bouncing Ball' and 'Formula', the sheer expansiveness of Autechre's 'lp5' and the gorgeous melodies of Boards of Canada's 'Music Has the Right to Children'? A. Solar X's 'Little Pretty Automatic' Just snapped up this little gem on Worm Interface. You may have already sampled Solar X on the alt.frequencies3 compilation. That track isn't very representative of the album, which lends itself more to the influences I cited above. Definitely one for the Skam/MaS fans. Perfectly paced, with just the right mixture of noise, melody, madness and tranquility. Definitely one to stick in your car stereo this summer. -- /\/)ark headspin - http://www.sonance.demon.co.uk/
