We Continue Part 1 - Kerrie (Cultivated Elecrtronics)

 


Title: We Continue Part 1

Artist: Kerrie

Label: Cultivated Electronics Ltd

Cat Number: CELTD06

Genre: Techno/Electro


A1: Heptapod K

A2: Droid Nation

B1: Swarm

B2: They Can’t Stop Us


I do like this. From the track titles to the music, Kerrie has more than succeeded in embracing techno’s overarching obsession with otherworldliness without the cliches and incorporating much passion. I’m immediately drawn to ‘Heptapod K’, just because of its ridiculous title (in a positive sense, you understand), and it doesn’t disappoint. There is wonderful dawn-of-time trancetastic digeridoo energy at play here. ‘Droid Nation’ is suitably menacing electro which grinds its way through a shattered landscape. ‘Swarm’, (a word that I’m sure UR have invoked at least once), has a menacing insect drone along its length, thankfully. And ‘They Can’t Stop Us’ is glistening, clean and subliminally stress-inducing. All wonderful and important stuff when trying to imagine the invasion of Earth by any variety of hostile life.
