Calika Grows

Calika's unique sound continues to please the reviewers -
proving the point that "growers" can provide considerable
replay value.... Calika brings a multitude of sound sources
to his work (from dismantled pianos, harmonicas and msp
patches) and crafts them carefully.

I like the samples, sounds a bit different to the usual
fare.

something I'd buy though.

i checked out some samples of this person after hearing they
did the runnning tapr stuff with mark clifford. it wasn't
really my thing, and the runnning tapr wasn't up to par with
the disjecta ep in my opinion.

i was really exited to see news on the polyfusia site and
then when they got the new layout i was like cool maybe more
news, but then i browsed the flash ridden webpage and i
wanted to pull my eyes out of my head it was such a pain in
the ass. webpages like that are the reason flash should be
outlawed.

all that being said i'll give this stuff another listen or
two

the polyfusia release is seperate from the Calika audiobulb
release.... and sounds quite different too.... but obviously
Simon is involved with each....

Personally I think both releases are excellent - but I find
the more complex arrangements of the Calika work more
engaging and challenging....

I think it illustrates the commitment and energy of the man
to be working across projects.... he is also in CEK a band
who recently played @ electrowerkz....
