A Oneothrix Point Never - Bipeds With Devalued Faces 9:54
B Slow Listener - Undiagnosed Sleep Disorder 9:50
Oneohtrix Point Never seem to be on the path to super plaudits at the moment, their recent run of releases getting spattered with glitter and the underground’s finest champagne. “Bipeds with Devalued Faces” is synth music that’s been brundlized, analogue on the margin of an error. What’s most interesting about this cut is the way it feels like particles are competing against other, there’s a strain in the sound. This is the (electrical) stormiest material that OPN have dropped to date. Like the Oneohtrix Point Never side, Slow Listener’s track comes in at under ten minutes. If these two had to go at each other in some kind of alternate reality drone dog fight, you’d be better banking on Slow Listener. Their track, “Undiagnosed Sleep Disorder”, beckons visions of a special place through the tones. Although it’s live, and despite a few sniffles from the audience, this sounds like it was recorded away somewhere safe and hidden – there’s a great atmosphere on this too short piece. There’s a conscious pleasure in both this, and much of Slow Listener’s other output, its simplicity its strength. Transmissions from Radio Dusk.
