Pendle
Coven, not much information on this artist/artists, but it has
been known that Miles Whittaker from the Baked Goods team has
a little something to do with them...
Track
one "Jaunty Angle" clicks into view with a wily drumbeat,this
is the soundtrack to a marching robot army, slight rewinds and
glitches flow through the brigade. Foreboding tones float overhead,
almost hovering above the crowd monitoring any stray words of
dissaproval.
Flying in and out of view the drones cause some droids to stutter
and stumble, matching the infecting drumbeat, luckily the flying
evil are called away on urgent matter and it all falls silent.
Track
two "Rollout M.V.p mix"is a minimal outing. An organic
smooth melody seeps out of the needle and pours an essence of
science fiction onto your lap, then slow thumping bassline begins
and is joined by a clicking drumbeat. Imagine listening in on
a shoot em up, but it is encased inside a pillow, popping bass
and muffled pows and beeps. Excellent.
Scratches, liquidy jewel melodies and tinny electronica, welcome
to track three "Spagnum Moss".
The melody bubbles out of this track like a natural spring, and
alongside bubbles a pangy bassline, attempting to speak or even
sing, but expelling a mezmorising audiohit. Damn fine.
Track
numero four is"Bracken". Echoey, echoey basshits and
sparkly chords, this is John Carpenter esque. Walking at night
through an abandoned city, every click and whirl is amplified,
dont look back as scuffed cars beep their horns, but who is driving????
Just keep on running because the sounds wont leave you alone......escape
from new york inside a computer. Class stuff.
Kick
back and let the water lap over your feet, its time to chill the
fuck out with "Nick'O' Pendle",,, HOLD ON...there is
some manic glitchbeep frantic crab attacking you, as it attacks
it drops a slow bass and a scratchy tune. The track develops from
a sun baked beach intro into a dawn themed scratch attack with
slow bassy thumps. Gradually it develops back into the Hawaii
esque chilledness, I think I need some sunblock.
Pendle
Coven - Trouble at Mill is refreshingly good. It doesnt ever get
boring or monotonous but develops from track one through to five.
From scratchy electronic callings to the final sun drenched outing,
this is all good. All I can say now is get hold of it when you
can and listen away, you will be loving it.
