I just looked it up and it's not the same as what I was
thinking of. I impulse bought 'Insect Digestion' by Hrvatski
which is something different. Sorry. :/

ALBUM OF THE WEEK!
HRVATSKI Swarm & Dither Planet Mu CD £11.99
Oh dear....how good is this??!!?? Following the killer
7” installment on Mu some weeks back, Keith Fullerton
Whitman returns with this truly stupendous and inspired
album for the label, at long last giving showcase to tracks
that have gone into legend and obscurity over the last few
years. Opening with the vatski’s dazzlingly,
stupified, genius-addled remix for Kid 606 ‘Vatstep
DSP’, we go from the machinations of laptop glitch to
a raggafied beat, mactalked toasting, gabbacore interludes
and the obligatory amen break, quite frankly leaving all
immitators (and the kid, some might say) with tongues
hanging, mouths slavering, scratching head and retreating
quietly in defeat. Bo! ‘When was the last time you
were violent?’ sticks with the percussive collage at
first, but creeps into a deeply rooted weave of digital
texture, darkly coloured spaces filled with reverberating
metalic sounds and 3 dimensional sweeps through space.
Awesome. ‘Marbles’, meanwhile, gives it some
Gameboy action, draped in a tasty gabba beat and snazzy
low-end that somehow manages to avoid the usual trappings of
what might be described as ‘novelty’ tuneage
and, instead, delivers a masterclass of beat construction,
sample editing and splicing technique that flows so
effortlessly that one can imagine the process appearing
almost as an afterthought. And that’s some
compliment. Onto the flipside and into another world,
‘Gemini’ unravelling a tender Fender Rhodes
arrangement, accompanied by what sounds like a Piano and
some spooled found sound, a tear-jerker of sorts, seeped in
a kind of unspoken euphoria that leaves us all misty-eyed
and out-of focus....a theme that continues with the glorious
Satie-esque opening to ‘2nd
Zero’...ahhhh..suddenly.....bang...mentallism
akimbo......hrvatski Special!! With 8 (count ‘em!)
Extra Tracks on this CD version – including a cover
of the Stones’ ‘Paint It Black’, the
gorgeo

-us Piano-laden ‘Echoes’ and loads more, this
is a bona fide classic record, every home should own one. By
law.
