KRAYON 017LP
|
2010 release. 180-gram vinyl. A jawdropping collection of crop circles etched in sonic candy-floss by New Zealand's beardsmith/noise-farmer Campbell Kneale. Rated by the horse's mouth as the best thing he ever made, EVER, Blue Eyes Are My Reward shimmers like an icicle-clad forest resplendent in its own crystalline magnificence. Snake-charming groove, dub-like boomph, and bleary-eyed strum blast the path out of a decidedly graying world of so-so metalized MySpace drone into a miniaturized drone-prairie of super-powered star-shine and dazzling stellar-commotion. Beyond the tyrannous clutches of omnipresent zeroes and ones, the macro and micro merge into an all-encompassing nowhere of sound, each expansion checked by equal contraction like Messiaen's "modes of limited transportation" scrambled by the Large Hadron Collider and replayed by one of those little twinkly watch reflections that occasionally dance around on the roof.
