Glacial Raid - La Vie C'est Facile (Creaked)



Title: Glacial Raid 

Artist: La Vie C’est Facile

Label: Creaked

Cat Number: CRDS62

Genre: Bass

 

1: Ultraviolet

2: Neptune

3: Emperor

4: Transform

5: Raiden

 

It’s either a worrying trend, or a sign of the times. Either way, this is the second release I’ve reviewed this week that’s incorporated clothes into its package. La Vie C’est Facile have socks, and previously a hoodie and a sweatshirt. It’s a buyer’s market I suppose. The music, on the other hand, is more interesting, if a little uniform across this release. Listening to the five tracks sequentially, as one is liable to do, there seems to be little difference in regularity. One merges into the next and the experience is a panoramic one. On closer scrutiny more detail is revealed and the world created more enveloping. This strain of grime is a high frequency one, albeit underpinned by low-end rumblings, and has a dank, threatening ambience.
