Press Reviews
Grooves Mag #4:"New England continues blowing up with this compilation of various artists based in the Boston, Massachusetts area-hence the name. Bostonnot London underlines the growing importance of Northeast Americans like Hrvatski and the artists featured here in what was once the London-only playground of abstract electronic music. Any compilation this far-ranging in style is a risk, but BnotL mostly delivers. Plex (not Toshoklabs associate Plex, strangely) begins with Cycksy, a track filled with interesting melodic ideas hampered by anemic drum sounds andbass, but answers with his own bouncy Skwerkory later on. Entropy Struct steps up with Clink Feedback, one of several strong experimental tracks he donates. Pick of this comp is Technology Scums fun, Star Trek-sampling hard techno Toys, which adds of energy and sly goofiness to the proceedings. A good start that could be great with Volume 2." -Rob Geary |
