I thought this would help give a boost to Kit's latest CD. Its a review I wrote (duh),soon to be out there..somewhere...soon.Anyone know if the Clayton/Pole show will be broadcasted? im not on idm-so please repsond directly. Artist: Kit Clayton Item: nek sanalet Host: ~scape (# 002) Form: CD or double 12" Kit Clayton rises once again, this time on ~scape records. This release nestles itself somewhere in between the emotional depth and production quality of Chain Reaction and Autechre. Quite fitting since ~scape is actually the label belonging to Stefan Betke (a.k.a. Pole of Chain Reaction Records). Previously recording for such esteemed oddity labels as Plug Research, Parallel and Drop Beat- to name a few- Clayton uses this ~scape release as an outlet to show his most enticing and successful leap into the still fresh world of dub. Though dub is a new division to most, Clayton uses his experience and talent to make it inviting to any dub-rookie. Not many other releases can offer you good music and a chance to learn a few choice phrases in the indigenous language of Cuna, in which 'nek sanalet' means 'world of substance'. All the tracks are harmonious while keeping in the dub theme. Like a good artist should, Clayton gives each track its own bit of whit and depth without letting it get to restless. In short, this release has a touch of Clayton, with an underhand of Pole. So, get out that Cuna dictionary and strap on your headphones, and let this San Fran based computer programmer take your mind to your 'kalu' or spiritual fortress.
