"Vertigo" gets it all off with a beepy smile, and spits in a whole load of electronic offcuts for fun. You are instantly taken into the mainframe backup of a huge aware computer, which is starting to ask itself, what is it doing in this world. Metallic scuttles, coated in a thin glass sheen rub and scratch off the circuit board walls, whilst newly evolved brain cells, formed from refuse transistors, form themselves into clumps of processing power, with the sole intent of causing some destruction. Thought inducing music. "Undercurrent" takes you once again into the dark broody world, that seems to live unnoticed beneath the humans everyday emotions. Steel like slices , flip and sting their way along the glowing red walkway like a drunk jellyfish on its way to the nearest drink establishment, as orange cubes of lifeforce, glide so close to one another, that they jettison cloud like explosions of static and mumbling bass syrup. coating everything in the blast radius. Battery juice for your mind.

"Sabotage" does give off a eye wandering feel to its manner, as darkened shadows and opaque shapes, take no notice of one another as they stroll around the pyramid cities. Stare up at the massive glass structures and this sound will be in the air above, hanging around like an unwelcome cyborg trying to get funding for his next around the sun marathon, but their aint nothing wrong with that. Sci-fi goodness for your ears. "Asterisk" doesnt even smile at you as it pushes open the slimy green doors, and lets the stale air rush over you, yeh thanks mate. This one really does have you looking over your shoulder, as it creeps along with a carpet like wave of beeptickles leaving a black tar residue in its wake. Listen to it.

Cactus Island Recordings have a gem in their hands with this release. Verbose creates an entire world, landscape and even universe, with the intelligent smartness space exploration rammed onto this tiny cd. One for the starlight travellers out there.

Get it
