Well, this is a marriage made in heaven. And thankfully realness is kept throughout. That means that this album does damage on multiple levels. It’s unashamedly floor-focused, delivering also on the esoteric electro sci-fi front. The track titles are testament to that. Fresh as a daisy, but carrying multiple transcendental electro tropes spread over its length, it’s executed in such a way as to make you feel that you’re hearing this for the first time. You’re not, but that’s hardly the point. Whiffs of Drexciyan fog on ‘3.26 Parallax Seconds’, the fragile frictional wanderings of ‘Microwave Photon’, the future primitive propulsive madness of ‘Encoder’, the sonic extremes of ‘Time Aperture’ the inevitable robot boogie of ‘Dimensional Shift’ and the ominous opening and closing of the machine-induced ambient bookends, ‘Temporal Matrix’ and ‘Closing Of The EPR Bridge’ are all highpoints of an album which is mercilessly free of unnecessary experimentation, but full of character and future funk.
