KA-SPEL EDWARD - CD CASTE O'GRAYE SKEENS

Popis - CASTE O'GRAYE SKEENS:
"LPD's frontman has delivered his solo release for 2001 rather late, but the wait (if you consider it a wait as the volume of material from LPD and related projects exceeds everyone else) was worth it. 'Caste' is a one-track CD with a multitude of songs or 'movements'. The phases evolve over the course of 50+ minutes from pulsating drum machine and vocal plays, creepy ambient horrorscapes, cut-up samples and distorted noises, familiar Ka-Spellian anthemic calliope music, and the occasional playful keyboard ditty. Various points seem to either hark back to the more sound-based (as opposed to song-based) LPD or pay tribute to Neu!, Residents, and the more experimental Pink Floyd era. Thankfully, there isn't a weak link in the chain: unlike many of the solo Ka-Spel discs, this one is absent of the occurance of a nerve-grating piece which goes on way too long. I haven't counted the amount of movements in the disc yet, but it's safe to say that if there's anything on here you're not getting into, just wait a couple minutes and it'll all shift gears again." - label press.
