For me, you either love or hate jamal moss productions, but not call it boring considering all the uninspired, repetitive, tedious, all sounding the same stuff around.

For me, this is a GREAT record and definitively best klang for a while.

Well, to put it a bit disrespectfully...It does sound a bit like uninspired random bashing on a keyboard

But I agree with you act(!)on, it's an either love or hate thing.

Klang keeps disrespecting themselves with release after release. What happend here? This label used to be so amazing

Greetings from Chi-town!
If you like Jamal's stuff, then you might dig this Live PA he did at our night last August. It was a blast!:

A bit of truth with the random bashing of the keyboard.

So it seems anyway.

The first time I heard it, I honestly thought the link was a bad link and it was playing something else by accident. Then this nightmare-like gloom set in as I realized I was listening to the latest Klang somehow. Where's all that Rocker/Satantic Circus/Other tracks from that Era of Alter Ego? and some of the earlier glitch funk on the label was "ok" too. All this new stuff STINKS.

PS - first 10 seconds sort of reminded me of early matthew dear and I was REEEALY hoping it was going to go that direction. But nope, as someone else in my home who heard me listening to it put it, "It sounds like a bunch of drunks mashing some casios"
