DOWNLINERS SEKT » “STATEMENT OF PURPOSE”
Downliners Sekt make their 9 track “STATEMENT OF PURPOSE” available for FREE download. I know practically nothing about them except for what little is mentioned on their website (mostly, where the songs were recorded). “Benz” is glitchy, dark and fast, “Disable” (listen below) and “Disable (Part 2)” are shorter more traditional techtronica numbers and “La Nueva Escuela” is probably the most accessible piece. “Weather Underground” is really a beautiful piece with fantastic vocals (sounding a bit a Morecheeba-esque) but the modulation shifts of the music make it more of an acquired taste. It took more than a few listens to hear it and recognize its beauty. I think it could be a stunner in the hands of the right remixer. [found via p3dro.co.uk]
